Is this the best guide for this mod? http://www.mmmonkey.co.uk/dreamcast-internal-vga-mod/ Is there a more specific parts list for finding them on Digikey?
You can save yourself the effort and buy a VGA cable off of eBay, or that snazzy one that comes with a scanline generator from a member here. I thought about doing this mod for quite a while, but opening up the Dreamcast any further than for a clock battery/ controller fuse repair is a real pain.
That is a very specific parts list. I'm guessing you're nervous about picking the "wrong" part and are looking for specific part numbers?
Cheap place to get the components: 1 x Double Pole, Double Throw switch 2 x 1N4148 Diodes 3 x 220uf Capacitors 2 x 4K7 ohm Resistors 2 x 150 (or 100) ohm Resistors 1 x female HD 15 socket 1 x 3.5mm audio socket/2 phono sockets (something for Audio!)
Yes, this will be my first time doing this mod and I just want the reason if I should fail to be my own fault.
I really wanted a store in the USA but I guess that will do. Thanks a lot. The minimum order is $5 so I'll just get two kits and if someone wants to try this mod I'll send it to you for the price of domestic shipping which is $2 tops. Just PM me.
Maybe this can be a help? http://img238.imageshack.us/img238/7892/1stor.gif I did the drawing, when I did the modification myself (http://www.assemblergames.com/forums/showthread.php?21585-Dreamcast-Internal-VGA-modification)
