Title: Unusual ROM hack
Post by: lurkist on April 21, 2005, 05:38:05 PM

Just before my mate went to the States to pursue his career, he gave me his A1200.  Anyone know what this hack is?  Both ROMs have pins linked with bits of wire!



EDIT - p.s. anyone know why the image won't appear inlined??!!
EDIT - looking at the source, something is replacing my quotation marks with """ and other annoying things!
EDIT - AAARRRGGGHHHH its doing it again!!!!!

I have here a couple of those modded 3.0 roms installed in 2 sockets. (even same wires color)

Don't now exactly why have been modded for what!

I'll ask to the guy who gave it me.

Looks like A11 and A17 have been swapped.. although I`ve got no idea why.

 What revision A1200 do the pair of you have? maybe it`s to correct an error in an early version ?
