dusted off

[seniorcelica]

i pulled this out of a pile of junk and cant remember if i had attempted a rgh on it or not? I tried to turn it on and all i get is a black screen but the box has power, thinking it might be a nand issue? so from this info is it or can it be rgh'd or flashed back with a replacement nand, prefer rgh if possible. thanks

If it had an ECC written to it, J-Runner would have gave you a message saying that the header is wrong. Must be something else wrong with it.

 

[seniorcelica]

should i try to write ecc and if i do can it ferk it up past the point of return? thanks for the quick reply.

 

[Krafter]

Do you have a modchip installed? If not then writing an ECC is pointless. If you do have have or if you install one then it can't hurt I guess as long as you have a backup NAND dump.

 

[seniorcelica]

i have a cr3 but havent got that far yet wanted some input before i proceed but i guess it doesnt boot anyways right? lol. im on a mission to get it to work and hopefully i can. rgh or rgh2? thanks again

 

[john mathews]

save a copy of nand then write ecc then install chip boot xell cpu key write upflash

 

[seniorcelica]

and i guess rgh due to dash a cb and i dont have cr3 its a rev c.....

 

[john mathews]

and i guess rgh due to dash a cb and i dont have cr3 its a rev c.....

that will work just follow the guide since its a falcon remove c8 on chip and switch to fat falcon usually boots under 45sec with these adjustments if soldering is good I believe that cb is rgh 1 that will have good boot times

 

[gavin_darkglide]

Based upon the dash version and the cb that j-runner is reading this is a glitch nand already, and all you should need to do is install rgh1, and the nand is already written. 14716 is the last dash before rgh2, and it has a rgh1 cb, running 14719. This would explain why nothing comes up on the screen, as the system will not boot a rgh nand without a coolrunner.

Good point but why wouldn't J-Runner tell him "header is wrong" when reading it?

 

[seniorcelica]

gonna admit defeat on this one..... programmed cr and now no power to the mobo, cr has power soldering is ok..... thanks anyways guys.

 

[AllyNerd]

Check your soldering make sure nothing is shorting the board. Where r u located anyways

 

[seniorcelica]

ya i resoldered everything 3 times still no go im in canada. i use to mod systems , not that im a pro just give me a diagram and i can follow it and do it not fully understanding why or how it works in the end (rgh tech stuff) and i have two other systems in the house just wanted to see if this could get up and running again. lost my patients already lol... thanks anyways

 

[gavin_darkglide]

J-runner doesnt say header is wrong when reading a glitch nand, only with just the ECC written. Just load up any updflash.bin you have and you will see this.

 

[gazcoigne]

post pics of your soldering for more help and use the template

 

[seniorcelica]

so i got it to boot to dash! now the only thing is i have removed the fan and usb ports for the bartop arcade i made because i thought this box was beyond repair.... now i have to figure out how to wire the fan back up...

 

[seniorcelica]

dunno why the fan isnt working when i hook it to the pins.... 12v mod? dont really want to because its sooooooo loud. what are the other options if any?

 

[gazcoigne]

mofset beside the header are prob fried replace the mofsets or install a variable potentiometer to manually control the speed of the fans

 

[seniorcelica]

thats the idea i had. i had soldered to the pins and underside of the board with no power. if you could post a pic as google hasnt found it for me that would be awesome!!!! thanks agian
