You can overclock it. No, really! I didn't believe it either...

Try the RGB mod, that will do for one. And then make it play PAL, USA, and JAP games.

do you have anymore info on this, it seems to be quite an interesting thing to do and i wouldnt mind trying it. also would that mod change the frequency (50/60hz) of the system?

i, like vertigo thought that you couldn't do such a mod.

Web page was up a couple of weeks ago but seems to have vanished now.

I think I have a copy of it somewhere on my harddisk, I will try to find it.

I have not had a chance to do the mod myself yet.

Here's the image missing from the instructions.

If you don't have a special soldering iron to take the chip(s) off, I wouldn't even consider doing this mod. It's just too much work.

A blowtorch is a good way of doing this,you'll wreck the pcb though.Just heat the area around it and the chips will fall straight off.

Hi!

Check my simple, but still cool I think, mod here: http://galleri.sweclockers.com/galleri_vis...p?chassi_id=835 (http://galleri.sweclockers.com/galleri_visa.php?chassi_id=835)

Just replaced the red LED with a super bright blue one!
