Hi Greg

Thanks for the reply, I believe this is the schematic for the board I have.

http://www.psxdev.net/forum/download/file.php?id=638

Looking at it PE6 isnt used. PB0, PB1 and PB2 are available. PD0 through to PD7 are also available with the exception of PD5 which is wired up as a Tx LED ...

Fantastic work, I have been wanting a USB solution for years :-)

Just have a quick question, Its probably no, but will ask anyway..

I already have a few ATMEGA AT32U4 based boards lying around, they go under the name AT32U4 Pro Micro.. Would it be possible to use one of these in lieu of the ...

Have you tested it yourself? I tried this a long time ago and could never get it to communicate.

If you are wanting a very good quality cable I can recommend the Monster Scart Cable.

I have one, its gold plated, oxygen free copper, and very heavy duty cable. The quality is fantastic.

Hard to come by nowadays though.

Also there is the IXOS one as can be found on this website.. £102 is a wee ...

PSEXE definitely doesnt work under XP, it requires direct port access which XP prohibits.

CATFLAP works okay with the old driver they originally wrote too but the CPU utilization is huge..

PSEXE only works on DOS or in a DOS shell under 95/98/ME.

3.3v isnt present in a link cable as it is not required.

Rather than relying on the colours use a multimeter to check the connections. Set it to continuity mode to check the colours to the pins. Is ground definitely ground?

I have around 20 cables from the same manufacturer and they are all different.

I have used many ftdi/prolific/siliconlabs/atmega ...

The yaroze isn't customised at all, other than its region free. If you have he access card and original boot CD I it will work on any standard PSX.

The access card is he same as an early memory card, but with no flash memory on the PCB. The MCU is programmed differently.

Someone on another site ...

I have something pretty similar to that, but I would be sceptical of the seller listing that one as "official".

The unit I have plugs into the AV port and also takes its power from the memory card slot.

The picture quality isn't great but the main problem is the refresh rate. Most TFT monitors I ...

There is a guy called Bad_Ad84 on Assemblergames forums who sells them in the UK. Very reliable and knowledgeable chap.

I'll give this a go at the weekend. Just fancied giving it a try then when your psx USB tool gets sorted I might have a smaller machine to try it on too.

That is the way the VCD cards for the PSone and 900x series work and to they manage to pump video, so can't see why an AR cart would be any more problematic

I have an AR cart with a broken connector that otherwise worked fine. Anyone any ideas on how easy it would be to wire this into a PSOne internally?

Most of the data and address signals used are available on the BIOS ROM like the VCD internal cards used. I did give this a go a few years ago and ...

I take PayPal or bank transfer. Can ship to US or Canada no problem at all. Price for the standard PSXSERIAL cable to US/Canada would be 15.50UKP including shipping by Airmail (typically around 5 days)

Payment by PayPal is as a gift or add 3percent to cover fees.

Drop me a PM if you want to ...

Could I please try the beta? I have a GT2 save I could really do with backing up and don't want to have to set up my desktop just to plug in an xplorer. Cheers

Just a quick update.

Sold a few of these now and they work very well. They are currently priced at 13.50UKP including postage to most of Europe.


I have a prototype siocons cable which looks the same as above but works very well with the yaroze environment in dosbox.

These will be available ...

The person I have on alibaba is getting back to me with a price for 24. Looking around £40 ish delivered.

So when I get them I'll see about selling on the leftovers if anyone else wants any?

EDIT: 24 units ordered. Hopefully should be here in a week or two.

@Trimesh - Cheers, I have since found a company via Alibaba called Winsource that have them @$1.87ea plus $20 for freight shipping to UK.

@Amidog - Not sure, I wonder if the difference between the 00 and 04 is in the model number.

Great work TriMesh, can you recommend a good source for the RAM chips? Only place I can find is in the USA at they have a $200 minimum order.

I remember trying this year's ago, don't think there is sound.

There us a simple tool that comes with it to convert a mix ROM to a H file. You then compile it with the yaroze SDK.

To use it on a grey psx or emulator use HITMENS combine to combine it with libps.
