    Nice to know it was useful ^_^ But an advice I can give you if you're not experienced with soldering, this is by no means an easy repair to do. You would need a very good equipment to have it done right, it is not to be done with a simple soldering iron or a heat gun. This needs professional...

    I really do not use it very often, thats one of the reasons why. Wished to help and, as always, it screwd up the information. Not a good idea to search for information before a cup of coffee, I believe

    Hardware My CycloDS Evolution finally died. Let's bring it back!

    Quick search using some smart ass AI says that (not official), the third pin is for "/CS" line, seems related to enable the console to select the cartridge chip as active or inactive. Maybe someone else can confirm it.

Mine just wont show up even after cleaning the...

    I had the same problem with my save file from Crystal Clear and I couldn't have it working.
