Gamerlol. Try what i said. Only use the the factory power plug and adaptor and i bet your power light will come back. If you understand what a fuse is and what it does you would realize its not going to damage anything to by pass one, as long (as hailraizer said) you dont somehow manage to hook up t...

I swear to god that fixed mine. Messed up the polarity and that fuse went on mine. But what ever. If u thought that was wrong u would of called me out on it, so i call bs. And why not by pass a fuse (i know its not great practice)? In a pinch it works and i doubht it would be fun to find another tin...

Well done machine man, do u have any disk read errors from the way the drive is mounted, Im building one and its got the same layout for the drive and if its not sitting face down (disk straight up) It doesnt like to read the disks. Any info is appreciated as to how u got that to work

Haha yeah man its the last one. Try that.

NO dont do that. Replace the white fuse with a wire. Dont solder anything to the power jack. This is on the bottom on the board. Solder a wire from one end of the white thing to the other.

What i mean is if u accidently hooked up the power backwards at some point, the fuse on ur ps2 will blow. If that happens it will not turn on when plugged in and u wont have ur little red light. This is a ps2 slim im assuming right? check this out. http://psx-scene.com/forums/attachments/f110/11139d...

hmmm well with that bit of info im gunna see about getting a new disk drive or ribbon cable. Or a cheap ps2... Expensive complicated solutions dont really float my boat.. Thanks for the info tho guys... And thanks for saying its nice... hopefully it will get nicer. When its done ill have some better...

Well if u accidentally reversed polarity, there is a fuse on the bottom of the mother board really close to where the power goes in, Its larger and white and says 6.37 A or something like that. try bypassing it. (Been there and done that today with my portable)

Has anyone had issues using a Ps2 controller in there portable? Do they seem to fry easy? Is there a known component that Fails? I know my controller was working today i had it hooked up correctly. It worked. I did not try to split it I actually changed my desighn to a portrait case so i wouldnt hav...

Thanks for the site man. I have traced all the buttons and know what pins to use. Im not really getting anywhere tho. Does any anyone know if having the resistor thats on the solderless controller is neccisary? Or can i just bridge it or exclude it. And how easy are these controllers to fry? I have ...

Well, let me start by saying i did try to search. I dont have a lot of patience but spent about half an hour looking. I just need a complete ps2 controller wiring diagram for all pins for the buttons and the conntection to the actual ps2 itself. (i found one but it was incomplete and incorrect) I am...

Man, im so impressed with this. Thats the perfect portable n64. Its so friggin small. Its pretty amazing how small you trimed the mobo. Huge props man. The quality of the portables these days seems to be getting better and better.

@hot dog cart: flippin awesome man i got a notch back. (hope the pics work) Also the gts isnt that low any more, the black one is dead now

Yanktaba. Still no go. I did everyting u said and the wii accepted the settings...Its on a static IP and the ports were forwarded. It passed the connection test but still no updating. Do you know anything else i can do? My connection is fast enough for xbox live no problem so i am totally stumped.
