    I have a modded a PS1 9000 model with a Mayumi V4 but this particular system only boots games when the disc tray is open. Anybody know what causes that? I know I screwed up somewhere along the way, though I should consider finding a way to shut the sensor.
    The chip I used wasn't Bad_Ad84's btw, but a different and bigger one.

    Well, the chip has a connection to the lid switch. It sounds almost like you have that point wired to the wrong point, so when its open it thinks its shut.

    Leg 4 is (typically) the drive door latch signal.

    I forgot to clarify. The game boots when the tray is open, but reads as normal if I shut the lid.
