Hello. Recently i found UniRom. And i wanted to play my backups on ps1. So i bought a gamehunter cd version. (the label fell off).

I swapped discs to get into UniRom install, but seems like it doesn't detect it.

Maybe someone has a fix for it :D

The software sees the chip but doesn't recognize it. There's nothing much you can do about it, but buy another expansion card or install a modchip.

The command which gets the chip IDs has failed, and bytes from the ROM were returned instead.

Buy another expansion cartridge, or force-flash at your own risk.

Also, if the PCB is "2M" labeled and you want to mod it (to use your own DIP32 chips), be aware that it maps the ROM Datel-style, like a GS/AR v2 does.

Be aware that if it bricks, your expansion card will be unrecoverable without a programmer.
Oh, and you can also try A.
It's best to have another working cartridge tho. Like an Xplorer/Xploder/Xterminator.

GameShark v1, v2 and bootleg cards cannot be connected directly to the PC // printer port. They were designed to work with this :
