got a quick question for any techy types.
i was region switching one of my saturn systems tonight. i tested the connections with my multimeter, and while doing so accidently touched 9v to 5v ("hot" pin on the multimeter slipped, touching the 2 pins at the same time)
since this happened, i can not get the system to power on. now i remember once doing something similar....i left the board alone for a few hours and when i came back, it worked fine again. i'm going to bed now to attempt to have the same thing happen, but i just wanted to know if anyone else has done this before, and if so, what was the result?
i have another board that will power on but will not display anything...the CD-Drive works and the light comes on, but i get no audio or video. i'm guessing that the board is defective, but i wanted to ask if anyone has an idea for a fix? i'd hate for it to have died,.
thanx
