[kreeddem]

Random crashing has started to happen on my everdrive. I was half way through MK2U, double dragon 3, sor 2 +3. Crash!!

Can someone help me out? I have OS6, Firmware 4, pcb rev 2.1

Thanks.

1) when crashes come? from begin of cart usage or after some time (few days or weeks)?
2) which system you use? (genny/megadrive 1/2, multimega, genny+32x, etc)
3) crashes present in all games, or only in MK2U, double dragon 3, sor?
4) it is original ROMs or some hacks?

this you can try now:
update OS to v9
try burn games with disabled "fast write" option

KRIKzz, I bought my Everdrive in August of 2010, we worked on it briefly because it wouldn't allow my US Sega CDs to load EU or JPN bios. I haven't updated more than the OS since then and wanted to check with you before trying to update the Firmware. I have an overclocked Genesis Model 1 now and the Everdrive turns off or won't load with the overclock. I see that the second to last firmware takes the Everdrive off the CPU clock, and the latest firmware supports all bios loading on all Sega CD hardware.

What I don't know is what revision of the Everdrive I have and I read the warning about loading the wrong firmware on the wrong revision. Is it possible to know what revision I have based on the purchase date?

Info:
OS: 29
firmware: 8

Firm v12 is the lasted version of firmware for your cart.

Okay, cool. I'll order the JTAG cable and get it updated. Thanks KRIKzz.

Okay, I got in the USB Blaster and JTAG cable and finally opened my Everdrive shell to see that there is nothing installed on the board where the JTAG holes are. I just wanted to make sure that a 10 pin header connector like this is what is expected. I would rather there not be any guesswork on doing this so I would appreciate any advice that isn't in the user manual.
