Circuit board temp install. Circuit board final with lots of hot glue for LEDs.

Sxerks-NESPC-061 Sxerks-NESPC-062

Hot glue holding wires in place. Another angle.

In the last shot you can see the circuit board connection is quite cramped.

I should have desoldered it, straightened the pins and replaced it upright.

Update: KB/MS external hookup changed.

Sxerks-NESPC-063 Sxerks-NESPC-064

Rear of case, painted power screws. Front, painted top of dvd drive.

The light paint was a mix of black, white and tan.

The dark stuff was a mix of black and white.

I plan on taking the sticker off a SMB cartridge and try to make the dvd drive look like a cartridge.

The PS2 header diagram in the manual shows the pinout.

The 'External' refers to the PS2 plugs on the rear of the motherboard.

I set up a Double Pole Double Throw switch for each the KB and Mouse.

So that it switches between the internal IR KB/MS data and clk and the PS2 data and clk.

The PS2 already has +5 and ground, so I only needed those to goto the internal IR device.

As for the RCA/SPDIF that also uses a DPDT to isolate the jumpers.

Update: KB/MS Battery power switch added.

This was added to stop the batteries from draining when not in use.

Sxerks-NESPC-075 Sxerks-NESPC-076
