    Default Dina 2 in 1 Help

    I posted in the other board and tried all of the things any mentioned on my Dina and it just won't work. I really want to get this thing going. Does anyone of you techies that understand electrical components have any idea how to test and diagnose these things. If anyone can, maybe We could work something out, I could even ship the thing to you and also work out a trade or even pay you deal. If anyone could help me out please let me know.

    I'm good at fixing crap like that, but I've never even seen a Dina, so I wouldn't jump to saying that I could fix it... but if you explain what the problems are, maybe if you pull it apart, look around in it to see if you can see anything out of the norm, maybe smell around make sure nothing is burning, and if you're REALLY careful, plug it in, turn it on, and put your hand above the components to feel for any heat coming off (but obviously don't touch anything!) Also, maybe a high resolution pic of the board would maybe give some of us an idea of what could be wrong with it.

    I have taken it apart. There is a tuner screw from the inside that I have tried to adjust, I know its working somewhat Because I put a game in and could make out a word on the screen once. It is very hazy and seems like the vertical hold is not working on it because the screen bounces like a pal game. Something is weird because even when removing screws, the screwdriver effects it and makes the screen change. I can try to make a pic but I don't have a working digital camera right now. Does anyone have any other ideas?
