Crystal Chips cc1.0 and a v14 console?

[nd3]

yeah I burnt the latest firmware to CD-R

I'll contact spedmetal as I have been looking for a few days now with no answers.

I'm unsure what a "bridge" is but my guess is it's a short. I've also did a resistance check on nearby pads to make sure none are touching.

Total loss here.. even if it was that I didn't burn the firmware CD-R, the laser refuses to spin up while the mod is powered.

Thanks for the help thusfar!

Any chance of an install pic?

P.S. With the chips power removed, does the console function normally (i.e. full functionality including reading of discs?)

As for an install pic, well I wish I could but my digital camera is crap and even worse in macro mode. I'll see if I can borrow a better camera.

I used the install pics from crystal chips website for cc1.0 installs

When the chips power is removed yes it does function fully.. loads cd's & dvd's as expected.

I decided to reply here.

1) Do I need to use the TO line? what is the TO line for? It's not on
the official cc install guides for cc1.0 on v14. If yes the heck to I solder the TO line?

No with the CC1.0 you do not use the TO point. It appears in one of my V14 installs as it was mistakenly added. That picture was taken before I had tested it, notice the wax paper. This is a CC1.0 in a V14

(unrelated and just for fun here is one of my most recent installs a CC2.0 in my V12)

2) Must I have the cc1.0 chip preflashed with a firmware higher then release18 for support of v14 consoles or should it be able to spin up the laser so I can upgrade from my older firmware first?

No you do not need the CC1.0 preflashed with R18 but if you have it flashed with anything other then a bios compatible with V14's this might be your problem. The factory flash is blank and boots the chip from recovery mode. Have you tried booting the chip in recovery mode and then running the upgrade disc? To do so tap reset 3 times in a row. Read here

If that doesnt work I would assume its your install.
