Hi,
Uh, thanks for your reply, but I asked what pin the timer wire goes to. Pin 3, starting from the small dot in the corner of the iC? the diagrams I have are conflicting. The say pin 3, but they do it the wrong direction.
Also some addition information is that my saturn is White, model number HST-3220
If your wondering what instructions im following im using the pages at MOD WORLD found via playthegames.com's web site. Even though I think I did everything correctly, it still doesn't work. I even tryed shorting the board into the other "mode" for diffrent models, and it still doesn't work. I have a funny feeling that the timing wire does have to go on real pin 3. The diagrams they have show it on the other end, but from what I know of electronics, I think it starts from the small circle to the left (marked in the circle as 1) and goes around. Im pretty sure thats right, but their text instructions contredect the picture.
I tryed doing it exactly like they did, and got the results in my first message, and when I changed the settings on the psudo mode switch, re-connected the wire again to make sure it was connected, checked the ribbon cable, it still dosn't seem to like it. But Im pretty sure it must be the timing cable since audio CDs play, its just not getting any authentication codes since the timing wire is not working!?
Im pretty anoyed/upset since this is a gift and the more changes I keep doing the worse the board is just going to get. I would hate to have to buy another 21 pin Saturn just to steal the CD-ROM off it.
Anyways, I appreciate any extra help people can lend me. Im trying to be as discriptive as possibe so peopel arn't guessing in vain about my possible problem, but if I missed something, please ask, and I will try to clarify it.
Thanks, I really appreciate it.
Cec,
