oh ok. quick question though. do i need to wire the ground to both pin 2 and 7 on socket one, and both 4 and 8 on socket 2 or will one ground wire for each socket do the job? Oh and do i just split my ground wire to get ground to both places?

Yeah all of the right voltages running off of batteries before i hooked it up. And for the screen i connected positive to pin 1, and ground to pin 7. I connected the composite, left audio, and right audio from the first three pins on the screen to where they needed to go to on the n64 board...

well i hooked up the av and the led on my nintendo wont turn on so i might have a short im not sure. :hit: i was getting all of the right voltages before i attached everything to the board so i dont know what went wrong.

No i never hooked up the A/V. But the weird thing is im working with my neighbor on this project and he hasnt hooked up the audio on his and only hooked up the composite after seeing the backlight come on. But now that you say it i feel like i remember hearing about something like that ill try...

Ok, well everything is plugged in, and i only started working on the screen today so i don't know if i messed anything up. The thing is i wired everything identical as did to my first screen and that one was working. (until i somehow tore off the trace leading to pin 12 :oops: )

Ok, so i am in the middle of building an n64p and i am at the point where i am adding power to everything. I wired everything up to the screen first for testing. When i did so i was able to mess around with the volume and brightness buttons and see (very dimly) the little grid at the bottom...
