    Looks like a broken firmware.
    You could try the firmware in my post.

    Re: Resistor mod others were talking about

    I use a Hanzo...Does that use the 12V from the console?

    If so, then I shouldn't add the resistor right?

    Not sure about the Hanzo but I use a Toro with the resistor mod without any problems.

    Just try it, I think it will work just fine.

    Hey there, is it normal for Dr.Mnemo to take an abnormally long time to get back via email? I sent my payment and it is a week and 3 days past my lead time, yet I get no confirmation or answer when I email, I feel like ive been very polite with my emails and haven't been bombarding him, leaving a week gap between communications. Has anyone ever complained about never receiving product from him? Naturally I am very nervous, since this was a big investment.

    Yup, it takes a while but the product is great and everyone received who ordered it as far I can see in this topic.
    I also bought him straight from him without issues.

    So it is fixed? :)

    I use 3.0 drives, they work fine.
    They aren't any faster than a 2.0 drive though.

    You will enjoy it :)
    If you aren't able to rip your own games check out THIS topic.
    And take a look at the powersupply:
    - Install a Pico PSU
    - Install a resistor on the original powersupply

    Thanks for the help, Ill wait until the maximum lead dates and If I don't get a communication by June, then I will just get paypal to refund, but since you guys are confident that I will get it eventually, I'm sure I won't need to resort to that. :) Im just disappointed because I payed for a shorter lead time, but is way past the lead time I payed for.

    Good to see it is working!
    About the resistor see my last post and click on resistor.
    The picture show a white block which is your powerunit. Put the resistor where GND is written on the white block.
