I just got and installed the memory card reader in my 1-slot. Now all I need to know is if it works. And I can't seem to tell.
I went to the test menu and it says "insert memory card" at one of the tests. I do, after which nothing happens.
I have two unused SNK memory cards--only need one but they were sold as a set so there you go. Even though they're new I realize they could both have dead batteries. I have the reader installed in the control panel and I believe I have all the wires connected correctly, but since they were not labeled, maybe not. Which slot on the motherboard plugs into which slot on the control panel PCB?
I don't have the small four-pin wire connected on the CP PCB; no wire came with my kit. Is that power to the headphones? If so, that's not important to me.
Is there some way to tell if this thing is working right? What should happen if it is? What's a good MVS game to test it with to lay down a save? What exactly is saved to the card--characters, progress? Will it remember more than just the last 8 games' worth of high scores now?
Any advice is great...I have the manual for a 4-slot and the FZ 1-slot, but not the manual for my old-style 1-slot. :/
