Region Free bios mod for VA1 problem

Post by cryptblood1986 »

Hello I soldered the bios on top of the old chip but when I try to power on the unit there's no power. However if I removed the bios chip and soldered back the original chip it boots up. Maybe it's because I don't have the 2 way switch?

How can I make the unit boot up without a 2 way switch so I can flash the new bios using dreamshell?
