v7, messiah 2, random freezing!?!?.....

[oliveshagger]

Hi,

I have a v7 with a Messiah 2 fitted, in general it works okay but has a tendancy to freeze damdomly, could be on a cd or dvd opr even a dvd movie?!!?

BUT after a while it starts working fine?!?!, track cut has been done!
Please note: Sometimes it even freezes on the ps2 startup screen (colored balls flying around the screen freeze)!

Please advise, Thanks

Is anything shorting? Does it freeze both horizontal & vertical? Is it possible that your wires go over the air rather than over the otherboard and they sort of short under compression from the metal cage?

No problems with them on PAL units. My PAL unit has the original release M2.
