BIOS Mod Help

I wont be doing this mod again until I have better tools for the job. Made a mess of it a job that could be done in half an hour took me over 3 hours

 

Agreed however it is rather easy to lift those components. I just made sure to get even better at putting them back on if I lifted them.

The problem is that people want to save a buck and overestimate their skill level just enough to cause a problem. Killing a Saturn puts you out $40 at least when the cost for a proper installation is a pittance by comparison. At least my rates sure are.

 

Yup, I'm not doing any more mods that involve removing IC's. Way out of my comfort zone

 

I see it all the time, and it really bugs me too. Not just with gaming hardware repairs either.

Do you know how much kitty litter it takes to clean up 6 litres of motor oil, because your idiot penny-pinching buddy didn't get any instructions on changing the oil filter? (Hint: if it's hard to screw on, it's probably cross-threaded, don't force it!!!)

25KG of it.

 

Well, no freakin' idea what went wrong with my Saturn... Just installed the BIOS chip in my Dreamcast and it was a breeze!

 

I'd better tread smartly on Saturn, can't afford further mishaps. Major GC issue has delayed my plans (upside is that means I've saved more money).

 

Bloody 'ell!

Don't forget to lightly wipe some oil on the rubber o'ring.... Probably not an issue now lol!
