I'm going to start spamming my blog with old nfos,zip files from the N64 scene that aren't that easy to find in a fast google search , so hopefully these sort of posts will be helpful to new/old owners of mainly Doctor V64.

HOW TO BUILD YOUR OWN V64-POWER SUPPLY V1.0
--------------------------------------------


Ok Dudes, bung is very good in delivering defective Power-Supplies with their
Doctors, also at sometimes a Power-Supplie overheats and works no more.

Here is a simple way how to built your own powersupply:

Items you need :

1. A broken V64-PowerSupply (actually only the cable which gets plugged into
your Doctor64)

2. A normal PC-PowerSupply (same you use in your Desktops or BigTowers)
3. Some Solder Iron

All you have to do is to connect the cable from your DoctorV64-PowerSupply
to one of the free connectors of your PC-PowerSupply (for example one
of those you normally use for your powering a HarddiskDrive)


Here is the PIN-Layout:

Doctor V64 Cable:
-----------------
blue = +5v
white = ground
red = +12v
brown = ground


PC-Connector:
-------------
red = +5v
yellow = +12v
black = ground
black = ground


All you have to do now is to solder/connect the stuff together

DV64 Blue <-> PC Red
DV64 White <-> PC Black
DV64 Red <-> PC Yellow
DV64 Brown <-> PC Black


Now that should work then.


-have fun
