Bypassing the Cartridge insertion check
A while ago my n64 started to not read cartages. A while later I found out I can boot it by following these steps
1 Turn it on
2 Insert the cartridge
3 turn off
4 turn on.
So After a while, I am started to think it has to do with the way the system checks to inspect if you inserted a cartridge or not before starting the game. I think this because when I do something similar like putting a cartridge in while it’s on it always reads.
So I want to try modifying the console to always pass the cartridge insert test even if it there is nothing in it…
I don’t know what this will do but I am pretty confident this will work. I just need to know what to solder in order for this to work.
Any ideas?
Is dit een goede vraag?
