Hello all. After realising my Saturn was horribly broke, I decided to poke around and try and fix a 50/60hz mod I'd done a few years back. I soldered over the wire that I'd cut, and power was restored to the machine. I then decided to re mod it, this time I decided to lift pin 79 off VDP-1 and...

I've been trying to recreate the situation, but I can't do it anymore. I've tried cleaning the contacts on the modboard with meths (methilated spirits) but that hasn't had any effect. As for cleaning the contact on the saturn itself, how would I go about that? The contacts are in that thin...

I have recently bought a modchip from http://www.robwebb.clara.co.uk/shop/saturn/saturn.htm (I got the "Saturn Mod Chip Board V1"). After installing it and using the Bridge points A+B method, it did not work. I tried multiple combinations of solder joints (the 0014 and 0019 settings) switching...

I have added a 50/60hz switch to my Saturn. I am using a DPDT switch. I have soldered it in, and i tested it in one position, the 50hz one (well, its at 0v anyway) and it works fine. However, when i throw the switch i get a high-pitch screeching noise (not that loud, just very high pitched) and...

Well, i tried putting the LED in both ways, but it didn't work. I was, however, using a 470 ohm resistor, which is probably resisting too much, and my soldering was also very bad indeed. I will try again in a couple of weeks when I get back from my holidays and I can get some good gear. Heh, at...

But i'm not actually trying to do the mod that is at gamesx. I'm refering to the "alternative" LED mod that that guy talks about in the forum post I showed before. Anyway, I tried it out just for the hell of it....and I couldn't get it to work. Thats most likely because my soldering skills are...

I was thinking of adding an access LED to my Saturn, so I took it all apart only to find out that there was no spot for an LED on my mainboard :(. Then, as I was looking round the forums, I stumbled upon this topic which suggests that there was a way of adding one on a Saturn that did not have...
