this is great! So many great projects to follow... :D

Very nice. I wish I had a 3d printer myself, to try and adapt the same design to this other LCD HDMI 10.1" as @wottle was mentioning I think I like this better: https://it.aliexpress.com/item/1005008286371680.html and it surely fits better the IIc width... it's also white!

Someone was selling good replicas on Etsy (IIRC) sometime ago. I bought one and it was ok.

Honestly I am not sure I ever used 720K disk images, but anyway I had to try a lot of DOS images before finding some actually working on the Gotek. I have this zip file in my archive, that should be the MSDOSVOL I have on the USB stick plugged to the xDrive inside my IIGS. Let me know if it...

I knew it! Direct video-out signal seems to never fail. Reading through the first posts, you will discover that under proDOS the card memory can be used as a RAM disk - in this case, testing it will erase any file saved there. Your issue anyway seems to be with the ColorSwitch... which seems...

You are right @sgilson99 , I forgot I tested the VGA-out adapter with a color LCD and System 7, but only got B/W. I am sure (and @Trash80toHP_Mini post kinda confirms it) there is a big need for Portable internal LCD solutions and replacements. You confirmed my concern about the power supply...

Bought the same chips with the same intent of replacing them on a (seemingly) non-working ColorSwitch... but then never found the time to do it :D - let us all know if something changes! Anyway I guess the new ColorSwitch pcb project could be a place to look at, for finding some answers, even...

@Compgeke did you manage to solve this? in my thread about setting up the PCT in my IIGS, I wrote this: Maybe plugging the cables could do the trick?

Thanks to @superjer2000 who shared a great resource; this GitHub repo: https://github.com/patdie421/pct-connectors-rebuild has pinout infos for every cable to be connected to the PCT, and most importantly: (new) PCB designs to recreate the ColorSwitch card! Super interesting, I will try to test...

@superjer2000 thanks a lot for the GitHub repo link: finally some clear hints to recreate the ColorSwitch! I knew someone would develop something similar sooner or later. I will add it to my general thread about setting up the PCT...

this is very interesting indeed @sgilson99 - and if In understand correctly, it will give backlit screens to 5120 too, am I right? And what about color? If the signal is plain RGB, it could transform a Portable in a Portable-C :D Now it's only a matter of finding a (more) suitable LCD for a...

Great video! (and great job on the keyboard!)

Hey sure why not! @ironborn65 where in Italy are you based? I'm in Milan area. DM me and we'll arrange something.
