Same SID Problems Again..

[bblaze]

Just building my 2nd sid setup now..   Running into the same problems i had the first time..  

I run the interconnect test..  and get all 5V on the data pins..   I've manually checked continuity to all pins.. and voltages all check out good..  I've tried new shift registers..   Also rewired it a few times..   and made sure to do the mios 1.7 mod.  

And.. Nothing..  Same results..

The Interconnect test does in fact work with mios 1.7, correct?    is there a way i can check the data and clock?  Also the serial out from the shift register is at 5V too..  

HELP!  :-)

wierd..

looking for ANYTHING of use on the site, i ran across sid interconnect "B" and it works..

ok.. so i got sidplayer_B working..  but when i load on a SID 1.6 prog, It sounds like it's formating a bank stick (not instlled yet)..  it goes.. ding ding ding ding Bling Bling (Bling like the init sound and ding like bank format)..  seems no matter which soft i load, it does this(Sid 1.6 config files)..   like i say, sidplayer is fine..   whats goin on here?!?!!?  so close..

Hi Bblaze,

sounds like the 1k resistor R2 is not connected to pin RA4 of the PIC
