  1. #1 V7 Seems Dead after a Magic 5 install 
    barclayrl Guest
    Hey guys i decided to upgrade my V7 that had a magic 3.1 to a magic 5 (so i could boot from the browser) Now i cannot get any picture. only the black screen. I have removed all wires and mod chip then reassembled. there is still no picture. what should i look for. there are absolutly no bridges on any bios legs. I really dont know what could have happened i have done about 15 installs to date this is my 1st failed attempt. Also this is my first attemp with a magic 5.... I knew i should have bought the DMS3!!! Anyhow what should i look for
