yea i have tried everything i can think of. I might just throw it across the room and see if that fixes anything.

Well it had the right voltages but then when i went back to double check there wasnt anything. I checked everything, so i dont know what.

OK this makes it even more complicated. I plugged it in and texted them. They came up 7.6 and 5.05. Thats good right? Well then I came to the computer to check to make sure those were the voltages i was looking for and then went to test them again, NOW NOTHING. This POS is starting to tick me off.

Alright I'll start from the beginning. Looking online on day I thought that I should be like ben. Bah bah bah. I bought the book read through it and went out and picked up a PSone. The person I bought it from said that it worked so I didnt question it. After opening it up I proceeded in removing all ...

I guess i should add that when I set it up to test it out again i register a voltage on the different components with a multimeter. The CD drive has power but it doesnt do anything, in fact all the parts have power but they dont do anything.

I guess i didnt explain well enough. The PSone was completely taken apart. Board was by itself with the controller slot, power plug, av plug, all sitting in a box. Then i wanted to test it out to check on how my soldering was going. so i soldered the power plug back on and then connected everything ...

So I was testing my PSone to see if it worked. So I hooked up the required things, power video and cd lid button. I put in metal gear solid, great game, and the beginning movie started playing, I had sound I had video, and now nothing. I must of just looked at it wrong or something because while ...

Thanks for the help I'll give it a try. I know that I shouldnt pull on it its just easier.

The two cords are different you will not be able to interchange them. But if your making a portable there shouldnt be any cords, isnt that kind of the point?

Yea I guess. For right now I just jammed it in there. It doesnt stay well but it works for now. Maybe Ill solder it when im sure thats where i need it.

After playing around with it for a while i was able to get it hooked up to a TV by reconnecting some things. Both drives worked! The PSone drive must have different technology used, because the game loaded with both drives, the PSX one was at a constant speed while the PSone would change. But the ...

I dont know if there is but taking a look at a few my guess would be its more work than its worth. If you are going to do it i would say replace the whole thing, then you will at least have boards to work with.

I know that title doesnt help much but I hope someone can help me. I was just pulling on the wires to undo the little plug and one of the wires came out. Its the kind of plug that is on the cd drive of the PSone, not the ribbon cable one. How do i get it back in and working. Its so small and its ...

Well heres the deal. I took apart the PSone that I got to make a portable and took everything off the board, problem is I didnt check to see if it actually worked. There lies the first problem my PSone is in pieces. I connected the power back up to see if it at least powers on and it does, thank the ...

So I ended up taking apart the whole dvd player to see if I could get the lcd to look brighter with another light source. After the hour or so getting the whole thing taken apart I hooked all the boards back up( damn thing had 6 boards jammed in there) to test it out. Well needless to say after ...
