Replacement CD Drive for PB 1400...24x — #4

Thanks! Sounds like that will work then; I will post an update after I've done the swap. These 12x TEAC drives seem to fail a lot, just like the original DVD drives for the Pismo. …

Setting proper resolution on widescreen LCD — #15

Replacement CD Drive for PB 1400...24x — #2

I can confirm it is a straight swap, but you might need to force it to be set as a master drive by shorting pins 45 and 47 on the ATAPI connector. Certain revisions are already se…
