Greetings, fellow developers! This is my first post here, so be free to point me if I'll make any mistakes.
I've got a RRoD Xenon board from a friend with a clone glitcher PCB previous used on a corona board (I know you're not supporting clones, but I didn't buy it, I'm just interested in the research). I fixed the board by changing damaged gpu to a new one, and installed RGH1 using a glitcher, but no luck, I tried every possible combination of wiring and capacitors on PLL_Bypass and CPU_Rst (even tried variable capacitor), used double shielded 50 ohm cable, also tried ordinary wires from IDE cables, and still nothing. I have CB_1923 and a 14699 dashboard.
I know it's nothing special to have this on xenons, but I wonder, what is the root of the problem for those boards? And why is it so hard to make a hack compatible with xenons? Knowing the issue can help me to continue my reserch and may be to solve it one day. It's really a competition for me, because I'm not interested to use this board, I'm just want to find a solution!
For now, I tried to slow down the whole system using a DDS AD9850 based synthesizer instead of a 27MHz oscillator, and it worked, the system slowed down and didn't crash! The AD9850 is cheap and it can be used in a pair with a xilinx chip to control cpu frequency, similar to how it's done on HANA's.
