I think this guide is good. You made alot of effort too. It's so good, it should be Stickeyed

P.S. your living space is dirty

hehe, you think THATS dirty, you should see the REST of my room....thats like 1/16th of it...

thanks for the comments i appreciate it

Thank you, my good man! Since tonight has found me drunk as a bug, my wife and I shall follow your guide on the morrow. If all is well, we shall report it to you post haste tomorrow eve.


(And yes, alcohol makes me act Victorian)

Nice guide, I'll try it out this weekend, I have some dead DC's lying around here . I'll take some pictures for you while I do it so you can use those instead of the blurry ones, if you want of course.

hehe, well i COULD just retake the pictures, but i think they get the point across well enough, the most important one (where it shows the wire and screw) is sharp, the rest are really just optional, but if everyone wants me to retake the pictures, or just use yours, then i will, i just dont really mind taking my DC apart because im so good at it hehe

Random question: Can anyone else here draw a Dreamcast Schematic from heart?

i found a site with some http://mc.pp.se/dc/hw.html

great guide Shibathedog! I had to do this last year and it was a sweat inducing endevor! I thought I would never get it to work! I coulda used your guide back then the one i used was confusing as hell

hehe, well im glad to hear its a good guide, thanks for all your comments/submissions

Is this going to be stickied?

Now it is!
Once again, great job Shiba!

thank you very much!!!

hehe i think i write good guides or something because there are alot of stickied ones here

Another great guide Shiba.

Great work

thanks, i may write a guide on how to speed up load times by speeding up the speed of your DC soon, mods like that have their drawbacks though (screwed up music in some games) so i dont know, i gotta think of some good mods now

IT'S ALIVE!!! MUHUHAA!!

My launch DC is now as good as new! Thanks Shiba.

glad i could help!!!

another happy DC gamer

I finally fot around to doing this, or rather i was forced to because my last DC died, and it worked great! I can't believe something this simple revived my DC . Tomorrow I'll do my 3 other dead DC's, I can't remember what the problem with them was, but I think it was similar to the one I fixed. Thanks Shiba.

wow i had no idea so many people where having this problem! Im so happy its been helping so much

I haven't gotten it yet

what do you mean? You havent tried it yet or you dont understand how to do it?

I guess I'm a few months late for the guide.
Any way of reposting it Shibathedog
i would be most appreciated. Thanks

i would appreciate to read it too!
greetings from france
