Repair Guide Stickies?
« on: January 26, 2016, 07:57:34 AM »
In interest of not filling the entire front page of the sub-forum with stickied topics, here's my stab at grouping common topics:

Repair Guides: Capacitor Repairs and Replacement Charts
   REPAIR GUIDE - Laseractive NEC PAC-N1 / N10: Total capacitor replacement chart
   REPAIR GUIDE - PC Engine LT: Total capacitor replacement chart
   REPAIR GUIDE - Super CDROM2: Total capacitor replacement chart
   REPAIR GUIDE - TG-CD: Total capacitor replacement chart + useful info
   REPAIR GUIDE - TurboDuo: Sound Fix
   REPAIR GUIDE - TurboDuo/PC Engine Duo: Total capacitor replacement chart
   REPAIR GUIDE - TurboExpress/PC Engine GT: Video Fix
   REPAIR GUIDE - TurboExpress: Sound Fix
   REPAIR GUIDE - TurboExpress: Total capacitor replacement chart

Repair Guides:  Laser Swaps and Adjustments
   REPAIR GUIDE - TG16 CD/PCE CD laser swap guide (pictorial)
   REPAIR GUIDE - TurboDuo/PC Engine Duo/R/RX: Laser Swap & Adjustment Guide

Modification Guides:  Video Upgrades
   MOD GUIDE - Universal RGB-to-YPbPr/Component Circuit & Mod [8/24/2014]
        PAL turbografx NTSC mod

Modification Guides:  Save RAM Upgrades
   BRAM upgrade hack
   FRAM Duo Mod

The remaining three are all unrelated and will be left separate until there's a need to bundle 'em together:
   REPAIR GUIDE - TurboExpress: A/C Adapter Fix
   REPAIR GUIDE - TurboExpress: Battery Tray/Connectors
   MOD GUIDE - Homemade converters



Any suggestions or better ideas?

This is a great idea. I was just thinking lately how annoying it was to always have to flip to the 2nd page to see any recent activity besides the sticky topics.

There will likely be more stickies in the future so how about making a child forum and put in a disclaimed "READ THIS FIRST", so we can flame noob who doesn't check sticky section and ask a question that has been posted.

I can't create sub-forums, but this would essentially accomplish the same thing.

Bah wrong forum software then. How about one sticky with links to all the useful threads and unsticky everything else? People would still be expected to read that first.

Or you can try pruning a few unnecessary stickies.
