The schematics that contain the VDP and SCART connector seem to be missing from the Philips NMS-8245 service manual scanned by Hans Otten in 2001. Is this info available anywhere? Or was it already missing from the original service manual?

Hello, I'm trying to repair a black screened NMS 8245 and me too found that two very important VDP schematic pages seem to be missing... Anybody can provide the missing pages ? On the Internet can only be found the very good scan from Hans Otten, which unfortunately not complete...

Please Help ! :-)

If MSXHOLDER could scan the missing parts I would welcome that as addendum to the manual.
