    Last Questions on Modding a Saturn

    Yeah, that would be me. I had the jandaman mod working in my 64 pin Saturn, but if you read through my thread here, it was quite intermittent. I seriously thought the mod might be at fault but then I got a 32 pin IC Saturn and it has been working FLAWLESSLY for the past 5 days. 64 pin IC...

    Spotty working Saturn mod...help please

    Thanks for the reply Alexvrb, but I had the power wire soldered fairly well on both ends. Regardless, I was able to trade the Saturn back to the place I got it for another. My hope was to get rid of that particular 64 pin IC and hopefully end up with a 32 pin IC, and that is exactly what I...

    Spotty working Saturn mod...help please

    Well after several days with Jandamans mod installed this is what it does. (Please read my first post for all of my particular Saturn info)... When I first installed the modboard, it would boot cdrs and originals just fine. However, the next day it started to not like my cdrs but would still...

    How would I keep the mod board straight? Electrical tape? And Mal, what cdr brand would you suggest?

    Mal, since your here can you read over this thread and possibly give me any ideas as to why my Saturn is only booting cdrs sometimes? Note that it does boot originals without fail. It's just flaky with cdrs.

    Burning Saturn games with Cdrwin RAW mode

    Well, after following the tutorial on how to burn Saturn games with cdrwin and making about 4 coasters, I finally tried making the bin/cue with RAW mode ON. It worked. The tutorial seems very adamant that you must turn raw mode OFF, but this has been the complete opposite of my experience. It...

    Spotty working Saturn mod...help please

    My ribbon cable was twisted, and my mod would only work facing away from the cd drive. So my ribbon cable now twists and then goes over the top of the mod board. Thus, my mod board wont stand up straight, it seems to be getting pushed slightly to the left because of the ribbon cable. I'm...

    I make bin/cue with cdrwin and burn with nero at 4x on a Yamaha 8x8x24. I would burn with cdrwin but for some reason I can only read with cdrwin, not write. .

    I'm using blue bottomed Verbatim 700mb btw. I've had pretty good luck with them but I'm new to Saturn burning as of just a couple days now. It seems that it is still a bit spotty though, since my previous post cdrs simply dont boot up every time. Originals boot up no problems, FMV plays...

    Ok what the hell. Does this make sense and if it does, please explain it to me. It seems that if I insert a cdr with a bit more pressure than normal, it will boot no problem. What could possibly be wrong here?

    Spotty working Saturn mod...help please

    My ribbon cable is 21 pin. On the cd board the IC is 64 pin. I soldered to the 8th pin there, like the tutorials say. The mod worked. I have 4 cdrs that I tested it with, they all worked last night (as did originals). Today they don't work. But originals do. However, if I fool around with...

    Spotty working Saturn mod...help please

    I received my modchip from Jandaman yesterday (it took a mere 3 days to arrive!) and proceeded to install. I have a 64 pin model 2 MK80000A. It worked fine last night after I installed it, but today it just seems to only read audio tracks. These are the same backups it was reading fine just...
