I opened up the console again, and I realized the usb mod (the one you get from MNEMO) was not booting at all. Then I put back the stock cd drive and the same problem. I started sweating cold thinking I screwed up so bad the console (after having invested a lot of money on the console and the usb mod) . Finally, I decided to remove the cables off the VP chip.... and the console booted as normal again, and with the usb mod, as before. I am not technician but I wonder what I did so bad? Everyone says this is an easy mod but didn't work for me lol Edited September 1, 2019 by bad_boo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bad_boo Posted September 1, 2019 Author Share Posted September 1, 2019 FIXED It wasn't the mod it self, it was a shortcircuit caused by the PSU shielding touching the console's motherboard. I put a piece of ribbon to isolate, did the mod again....and yeah, I got 240p Sorry for creating an useless post ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at all, the shared experience might come in useful for someone else or at the least inform someone else on something to be wary of. The fact you followed up with the explanation is the important thing, enjoy your 3DO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that, I am happy with the new 240p look on my 3do. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
