Hi,
I've recently fulfilled my childhood dream and bought 2 Neo Geo AES. Both in 'not tested' condition. Both have different problems. This one is has a NEO-AES3-4 board and is totally dead.
When I plug it in (directly through RGB-Scart or through a XRGB-mini Framemeister, the screen stays black, the speakers don't do any sound, the headphone jack as well no response.
Here is an image of the board:
What I've noticed is that the coil, a diode a capacitor and the voltage regulator is missing (compared to the other board):
I've ordered replacement parts for those (except the inductance coil as I was not able to find the correct one). I understand that it's not possible to say what's wrong with this board, but if someone has a picture of an unmodified NEO-AES3-4 board, it would be great to see it and to do a first visual inspection of what the previous owner has taken or added from/to this board.
Thanks a lot,
Holger
