I was very lucky in this repair, the fault is a broken belt that is used for the operation of the Floppy “Quick Disk”.
?hd=1
I post some screenshots and a video of the repairing of a NEC PC-Engine LT console.
Defect in the console:
Some capacitors have leaked acid on the pcb, i had to clean with the right product made especially for cleaning the pcb before proceeding with the replacement operation. The LCD screen is was disassembled to remove the dirt inside.

The HxC Floppy Drive Emulator is a software and hardware system created by jfdn aka Jeff.
The aim of this project is to replace the floppy disk drive by an electronic device emulating the floppy disk drive (list of supported Computer/Hardware).
There are two differents emulators:
- A USB version which allows to connect the floppy disk drive interface of the computer to a PC via a USB cable.
- A SDCARD version which allows to emulate floppy disks which images are stored in a SDCARD.
Firmware SD HxCFloppyEmulator v1.7.2.0:
- Microchip PIC18F4620 Rev. B5 Silicon MSSP Module Errata applied (correct possible SDCard Init issues).
- SDCard layer reviewed / corrected / enhanced : Better SDCard compatibility / Error handling.
Release notes for the HxCFloppyEmulator software v2.0.6.0:
- PRE-RELEASE – IN DEVELOPMENT: HxCFloppyEmulator software v2.0.6.0 (Windows & Mac OS X support !)

A new version of the firmware for the interface 1541 Ultimate II is released. This version runs only on the 1541 Ultimate II cartridge (new fpga).
Version 2.5 includes some new features:
- File viewer.
- Selectable colors in user interface.
This version also includes some fixes for nasty memory allocation bugs that existed when using USB sticks. Removal of a USB device is now at least a lot safer. Also, some file system bugs were fixed.
Version 2.5+ includes some new features:
The ‘plus’ version of 2.5 including a special 7-voice audio engine. This version is based on the same 2.5 with the bugfixes and a special FPGA build can it only supports ONE floppy drive, in favor of extra audio functionality.

SNDH archive v4.0 released. 121 SNDH-files added or updated!
Ever since the birth of the Atari ST, different chip music formats have had different ways to use them. If you are coding a chip music player for the Atari ST you would have to use dozens and dozens of special ways to replay music.
But in the mid 90′s, BDC of Aura crew became tired of this inelegant system and decided to fix the issue once and for all. He then created the ‘SNDH’ file format. SNDH is actually the original songfile and replaycode with a header bolted on top of the music and replayer. The header has a unified calling interface no matter what type of chip music is hidden beneath it, and it has extended datas about the music.

Peter Jørgensen has released a new Beta version of his YM-2149 Tracker for M$ Windows. The sound chip YM-2149 is used in Atari ST/E/Falcon series.
New Function in Beta 14.00:
- Mixer control.
- Stereo.
- Simple reverb.
- Startup directory.
Beta 14.00 – note from the author:
The Ym2149 version 14.0 Beta is probably the most important update that I have released. I have change how the program handle the sound thread and that have improve the stability of the program very much.
Sometime when changing device / export to wav /sampling frequency, etc. the program would hang, but that should be gone now.
I have rewritten the Ym2149 emulations, so it should be closer to that of a real Ym2149 chip. I have also made a mixer window, where you can change stereo/ mono mode, reverb, and output volume of the channels. plus a lot more. I have also remove a numbers of smaller errors.
