Did you check all your solder joints to make sure they are solid? Have you tried adjusting the brightness on the dial? Are you certain the resistor value is correct? Does the unit still have its original capacitators? As those go bad, they can cause the screen to appear dim. There are so many different things that can go wrong when electronics are this old. I'm not really active on the modding scene anymore because I have no time, but I can point you in the direction of an active forum: http://bitfixgaming.boards.net/
