Hot on the heels of our last episode, this video wraps up a few odds & ends before pausing the project for the winter. Watch Charlie address the G07 monitor sync issue, replace the worn-out joystick grommet, clean the filthy control panel buttons, install a normal speed chip, and put everything back together to play a fully working game!
