As best as I can understand it, the danger is that when you have a console sending 5v bus signals, a flash chip needing to receive those signals at 3.3v, and nothing but resistors in between, you run the risk of the console side having too much current going through it and stressing irreplaceable components like the CPU.
So, I'm guessing that the two voltage regulators on the MegaFlashROM SCC+ are for power supply, and that the resistors are all for bus signals. It appears that the flash chip is indeed 3.3v.
It would seem that for owners of this cartridge, there is nothing but to hope that the components in various MSXs can tolerate the extra current. I wonder if there have been any cases of MSX systems breaking while using this cart? Guillian, do you have any comments about this?
I expect that some people here have used their MegaFlashROMs for hundreds, even thousands of hours with no trouble. Still, this is something that is good to be aware of.
I noticed recently (I was about to notify about this) my turboR makes some electrical noise when reading/writting from the MFR, but I don't think it has something to do with it. Gillian is really experienced in both, hardware and software.
I did a tiny bit of searching myself but then, well, 81 pages...
The question is. Is it possible to flash/mount a DMK file to the MFR? That would be lovely.
I accidentally deleted the SD kernel and I'm trying to reinstall from the recovery menu (option 4). I've placed the kernel.dat file on the root of an empty SD Card (32GB) (aside from "System Volume Information" hidden folder). When I select option 4 the tool searches for the Kernel but then say "Kernel not found". Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? (aside from being stupid enough to delete the SD kernel in the 1st place!!!).
I've managed to get back into MultiMente but when I try to change to disk b: (SD) it won't recognize the disk. This is using the same FAT16 formatted SD card used to flash the kernel.dat.
