Ah, OK; so you're going to connect J8-2 to -8 or -9?

I think this time I'd have added a jumper on the board instead of replacing the regulator but yes that's a flying lead (but it doesn't fly far ;-).

Interesting hack to be sure, if you're going to replace the RAM chips anyway and don't need power for the display.
