I'll have a look and see what my mod has.

So do these boards not work on 64 pin Saturns?

 mal May 6, 2004
At first glance, no.

I haven't yet had a chance to have an in depth look, but it doesn't look good.

The manuf code stamped on the PLD in the middle of that mod board doesn't really mean much. As long as its a 16V8 and it has the same JEDEC file programmed into it , they would be electronically identical.

That is what I was thinking. I am just trying to think of reason why this isn't work on my 64pin, even tho the site claims it will. Do these modboard have region codes build in, so that a PAL unit can play all region? Has anyone tryed this modboard on a PAL 64pin or JAPAN 64pin version? This may not be the case because it may work on a 32pin US version, but I havn't try it on one.

I don't think any mod boards do region switching on their own. But if the mod is installed correctly and you play a different region game, you will get the 'disc not suitable for this system' screen.

I believe I've seen a modboard that did region switching on their own, not recently though. And I could have dreamt it.

Nop

"Disc unsuitable for this system" <- No saturn-game cd inserted.

"Game Disc unsuitable for this system" <- Foreign *original* Saturn CD

I when out and purchased a saturn today. I came home and check to see what IC it had. It was a damn 64pin . I purchased the V2 modboard from the site above, so I though I would be OK. After installing the modboard I tryed to play an original game. It did not boot the game but it did play the audio tracks. I followed all the instructions to the "T". I hope mal has better luck.



mg: I to must second with ZoNeD. I have a 1996 June Malaysia 64pin IC, and purchase the so-called V2 Modchip. At first glance it looks very promising. But in the end all I can get is Audio. Same problem with my Jadman Modchip. I guess I have no choice but to hunt down a 32pin SS. :looney Oh and yeah I tried different ways of manipulating the Modchip. Still didn't work. :blah

Does anyone know of a 20- pin mod chip?

Even if There is one, it won't be easy- The power supply is attached to the lid

They exist, but you're a few years too late to find one easily.
