    ps5 edm-010 blue light + beep but missing 1.8v and 3.3v standby voltages at hdmi IC

    Yes. It will most likely be the south bridge. Long story short, the 3.3v line to the right of the HDMI encoder is an enable line. This comes from the SB. The input 1.8v to the y09k2 also comes from the SB It will impact many if not all of the missing voltages. I mapped out some of the pad...

    PS5 no power, not turning on, short on 12volt rail, help please.

    If I remember correctly a working one around pin 1 was like 430-ish in diode mode. I personally ended up pulling mine 1 by 1. Check for heat first with the putty removed though you might be able to identify which one it is.

    PS5 no power, not turning on, short on 12volt rail, help please.

    You can remove a large inductor (R22H) on the other side of the board (in approximately the same location as the 12v mosfets) to isolate and check for continuity to ground on the other rails. 5v rail by F7002. Then if your 12v rail is still short check the MOSFETs on the 12v rail under the...

    PS1 Launch Games

    There's something so nostalgic about the SCPH-1002 version of the playstation. Not just the audio outputs but the firmware, little messages to insert the disc and then actual text on the power and open buttons. Too bad the disc drives were dreadful.

    Zelda: Skyward Sword - Play on the Wii or the Switch?

    I've tried on both and honestly they're equally as bad. If you have a retro setup, CRT etc then just do the Wii version. It at the very least looks fine with decent component cables.

    Capcom resurrecting Power Stone? (Maybe)

    I'm not sure i'm ready for power stone with dual analog sticks. Capcom has a pretty hit or miss record with updating control schemes.

    What did you Accomplish in Gaming Today?

    Got my kids into the Wii U finally. Funny when you compared Mario 3D world to the switch version there's actually a fairly significant amount of downgrades made (now blowing for fan platforms etc)
