    Need photos of N64 inside

    I've taken apart my modded US N64 to try and correct a flickering problem, and done that successfully. I can't remember which screws went where however (there's not that many of them, I know the special screws requiring a gamebit are the ones you screw in externally). Are there any pictures of an N64 with its casing off, so I can see where the screws go? There are loads of holes everywhere, but with many of them, a screw wouldn't be needed at all.

    Thanks!

    I don't get this. There are loads of holes inside where a screw would perhaps hold two metal sheets together, but a screw doesn't do anything, and none of the screws taken out seem to fit inside properly, anywhere!

    A pic of the N64 with the bottom taken off will be very helpful, so long as you can see where the screws are

      As long as the heat sink is in place you do not actually need anymore screws in the unit apart from, obviously, the ones that hold the case together.

      Did you build an amplifier internally to get rid of the flicker ??

        It's ok-I was sitting there for about 10 mins trying to work it out, till I realised I was trying to screw everything to the bottom of the N64 where there aren't any screw holes, turned out they were all at the top

        What I did, was cut the booster wire. Saurian's going to convert my RGB cable so the amplification is external, so the flicker (now removed) won't be there anymore. Do you know if this external amplification worsens the picture particularly?

          No not at all, we did a few of these mods when the N64 first came out, we sold loads with the booster mod and a few customers called to say they had flickering image, mostly philips sets.
          So we did the amp, but internally, and they were well chuffed.
