Working on my first V9

**Robochicken** · 04-27-2005,07:36 PM

Just got a V9 today and will be installing MI.

I'll be installing Summ0ne's instead of Romeo.

Is this all I need?

why summOnes, the romeo works fine

I've never done Romeo's fix - don't you have to cut a leg of an IC?

With Summ0ne's it's just a 560ohm resistor I have to put on.

Am I safe doing this or is Romeo better?

romeo mod makes the chip run on minimum voltage. With the romeo mod u can do three things lift the pin, or cut a trace or cut pin off. U could do both...

I ended up doing the romeo mod but got redscreens. Later I found that I was following the PAL diagrams instead of USA - doh! 1 stupid H point I missed

I did a V9 last weekend with Matrix Infinity, applied Summ0ne fixes, no problems to report, unlike the slimline ( pain in the but). I asked this in another thread, does anyone have the 683 values on the v12 as I think I've toasted the focus ones on the board, but as all the others I have are 303's so I cant take a reading from a fresh console.

Cheers,
