![]() Work you way along both sides and double check them, you definitely want a clean cut through each leg for the next bit! In fact, TRIPLE check them. I hold them with the flat side facing upwards so that the sharp edge is as far away from the motherboard as possible and then cut each leg as close to the chip as I can (you’ll probably find it will cut on the bend of the leg, that’s perfect!) I don’t have a hot air station anymore, so I used a pair of half decent side cutters to carefully snip each leg. Here’s how I removed the existing BIOS chip (IC7 on the couple of boards I’ve looked at). You can also buy a pre-programmed chip from Bad_Ad84, making this a very very easy mod. For further details check out the the site which released it.īad_Ad84 has pointed out that it’s probably easiest to get GND and VCC from other legs on the same chip, so – link up leg 2 to 13 (GND), and legs 43 and 44 to leg 23 (VCC). Currently it does not let you play CDr discs or control video mode, but it’s still a fantastic achievement. After many years, a region free BIOS for the Saturn has been released.
