V5 or V6?

Sterno · 12-22-2002,02:22 PM

OK, I have heard that the MEssiah 2 has had problems with v6 boards. Only thing is I cant tell if I have a V5 or V6 I have searched the web but it always tells me that I have one of the two, Is there any way to determine if which version I have?

Yeh, the ribbon connectors - one version is one way up, another version is the other way up (pins facing).
I see if I can find which is which for you.

Give us your Serial Number and Datecode from the back of your PS2.

The ribbon connector config is not always a definate. In all reality you need to look and see what the #'s on your bios are. I was convinced that I had a V6 but according to LOD it in fact was a V5.

The serial #s aren't 100% accurate. To be really sure you'd have to open your console up and see what BIOS # it has.

Yep I have a #FU******** and thought it my be a V6 but after opening it up and checking it was a V5
