Ages (years) ago I was hooking up a mv1c at an event, and I being stupid, hooked up the power supply wrong and sent +5v to ground, Killed the mv1c and (luckly) a cheap 161 in 1 (thank goodness my windjammers wasn't in it!)
I never threw it out, especially since a friend said it might not be broken beyond repair due to it booting up to the green screen which is apparently most of the boot sequence?
Can anyone confirm or deny this?
I suspected that the board is damaged beyond repair because ground goes *everywhere* but maybe there's a fuse somewhere protecting it?
I don't have an oscilloscope or anything. Just a multimeter. Does anybody know if there's any hope for this board? And if there's someone that can do a diagonostic/repair in Southern Ontario / Upstate newyork?
