OK, unfortunately, it's pretty complicated - and Martin doesn't help by expressing things using his 'x86 like' assembler syntax rather than the...
Maybe, but I've never seen one like that, and I've always found the fans interchangeable - the fan in the unit in that photo is a Mineba (NMB)...
I don't know who told you that - but it's not true. The output pin on the VA1 DC fan is most certainly a tachometer. If you connect a scope to...
Signal from fan tachometer on a VA1 dreamcast
PTS-0123 could be difficult to find - from the LED, I think that's the cartridge that was used to control the WonderBorg, which never sold very...
Wow, I remember him, but I had no idea he went into the games business - when I talked to him, he was at the LA Creature Shop in Burbank, and was...
I had a French Megadrive 1 - the most noticeable changes from the standard PAL version was that it didn't have an RF modulator and the composite...
Yeah, I think it was a SCPH-30000 and a SCPH-30002 - the SPCLK applied to the GS is slightly different between the models - it's been a while, but...
The difference is about 1%, and is unnoticeable to most people. For the megadrive, the exact clock frequencies are 53.203MHz in PAL mode and...
That's interesting - I didn't ever realize there was a 64MB Chihiro - all the ones I had were 128MB, just like the debug kit boards.
How about "Call of DOOM"?
Yes, patching the region data on the image works - you can also use the Japanese versions of the cheat CDs since they have boot code that doesn't...
Early on, the PS1s in HK were all grey import Japanese SCPH-1000s - these were also the ones where you could swap to a copied disc in the CD...
As far as I can see, it behaves identically to a real debug kit - I was a bit concerned about the EEPROM, but it didn't seem to matter - it was...
We had lots of them - and these were drives that were sitting in a nice clean air-conditioned room with a very limited number of spindle power...
My Xbox "Debug kit" consists of a retail case with a reflashed Chihiro mainboard in it (just the TSOP reflashed with an untouched debug kit boot...
I don't regard the current Maxtor drives as being especially unreliable - but during the time period the DESR was a current product they were...
Not "all" - but presumably the people that care about cosmetic variants would be.
Depends on which territory your console is - the OneChip is designed for PAL consoles, and will patch out the territory check in the boot ROM....
