So have I damaged this MD with my poor job of assembly?
Let me know what needs to be done to save it and let me know how much you need to repair it.
I'll make a paypal payment for your work.

Thanks again, I really appreciate all your help.

I will try to repair it tomorrow.

I re-soldered both diodes.
I replaced the 20 MHz crystal by a 16 MHz crystal.
I changed the Atmega32.

Your MegaDrum works perfectly now !

EXCELLENT!, So bottom line, all I had to do originally was flip the diodes? Was the atmega32 bad? or did it get damaged?

The Atmega has a problem, may be due to static electricity.

You paid only the Atmega and the shipping cost.
The labor is free.

I will PM you.

Please send me a paypal invoice to the same address you sent the initial invoice too, I don't want to post the paypal name here, so if you don't have it, let me know and I will PM it to you
