now i’ve had this for a month or more n the site for a few week but i have yet to get any real replys from either topics or pms (i got one from dog thank you)

so sadly i must make a topic about this out of desperation. now i wanted a vb for ever i can still remember when they were giving them away n hyping it at my mall. but any ways i traded my computer parts for the vb with broken stand wall power 6 us games (wario land, mario clash, red alarm, pinball, panic bomber and mario tennis) but after about a day or so i noticed the left screen would mostly black out majorly glitch so on and so on and the right one sometimes gets grid marks. both were fixable by adjusting the screen but last time i could not fix it.

now i know this issue is the ribbon cables. but from there idk what to do i don’t have the screw drivers and can’t make one (i have melted so many pens, platis sticks, dental picks, tooth brushes, so on and so on) i don’t have the tools to make the modded screw driver. so to open it i am at a lose since i am on welfare so its not the best thing for me to buy one. that’s why if i buy any thing its super cheap or i do trades or its free

now if i got it open i would be lost again there, no fine tipped solder iron and my dad cant do that fine work on it. if the oven method is only a temp fix then i don’t want to do it also i cant find any guide for that

SO LONG STORY SHORT can some one fix it for me i have looked at every single option. i +just don’t want to open it up and kill it. i can trade a handful of items, sega genesis systems model 1 n 2, 2 nes systems (one has every thing it needs the other has nothing for it) ds games, maybe one of my vb games ..not wario land lol, any game from my collection of systems, computer parts big list, psp mods.. the list goes on

im in Massachusetts if any ones near by if not i can mail it out (trust me this is my last option) so if i can not get this system fixed i will either toss it out or just leave it next to y snes thats missing cables in the bootom of my desk
