Why do people who can barely even hold a soldering iron think they're qualified to go poking around their consoles? Pic related is /vr/ OC from redditor normalfags like you. On that note, is it just me or has this overall been the most destructive summer in /vr/ history? This place is just infested with blatant newfags now.

Fuck off, s-video is good. The genesis modchip works fairly well although I'm still having a bit of noise pop up on the screen. I was planning on desoldering the video chip and putting in some copper sheeting which worked pretty well for my Famicom

/vr/ OC. this is why you don't tell normalfags that modding consoles is possible

i recently bought this ps 1 as "untested", I had to replace the cd drive and there was this unbearable noise/clipping/distortion in the sound of the games (except for the cutscenes/ audio cds). The guilty joint was on IC106, which is labeled as " cpu dram" on some russian hw wiki. The gross thing you see in the picture is my work. There were two cold joints, the one causing the sound issues was pin 14. The other one was pin 26. I broke that one and I'm fucking angry at myself now. The system works, it runs games, but I'm afraid it will glitch or write invalid save data or something. Basically, my first reason for creating this thread is that people with the same problem can find this post in the archives. My real reason: does anyone a schematic of that Toshiba chip? I really hope that it was just some ground pin, damn. please, no bully about my soldering
