I was given a kit to build a Colour Maximite 2 and been having fun, but I seen to be stuck.

It is a v3 motherboard by Geoff Graham and Peter Mather, which uses resistor arrays. The kit came with 220 ohm arrays instead of 240 ohm ones, so I ordered some 240 ohm ones from eBay.

I am an experienced solderer, so I think I soldered everything correctly. Here are some pictures. It's in this state right now except I also populated the 14 point in socket in the top left.







I uploaded the 5.07 firmware I found online (with jumpers removed like the instruction said), put the jumpers back on, plugged the power and monitor in and turned it on. The power light comes on, but there is no output to the monitor.

Help would be appreciated.
