Install on SCPH-1000 PU-7 1-655-322-11 #251
Comments
Yep, the PU-8 series is fully supported. This starts with the SCPH-1000 consoles that came after the launch in Japan, over to all the international SCPH-100x seriers, and ends with the last PU-8 boards in the SCPH-3500 or so series in Japan. |
Hi, thank you for taking the time to answer. But the question was about PU-7. PU-7 is said to be supported, but I can't find any install info on it and the QSB does not seem to fit either. Checking playstation models wiki page, PU-8 boards on NTSC-J consoles were found in SCPH-3500 and SCPH-5000. If PU-7 is not supported, I will try and get a PU-8 from Japan, but also not sure if that is supported because SCPH-3500 is not listed as supported and SCPH-500x support may exclude NTSC-J consoles, since the SCPH-1000 are all PU-7 and if PU-7 is not supported it may mean the same thing for SPCH-5000. |
I'm sorry there is confusion. If you're looking for a PU-8 board from Japan, then a good chance is on a SCPH-3000 or SCPH-3500. A few SCPH-5000 may also have it, but it would be more likely to be a PU-18 then. In general, xStation supports (and has a QSB) for PU-8 (EARLY), PU-8 (LATE) and PU-18 boards. As an aside: And another aside: |
ok. thanks for the clarification. would be interested in seeing a guide for it. in the meantime i will go hunt for a scph-3000/3500 |
I'm working on the next firmware update, which has to pass testing on PU-7 as well. When I'm getting to that, I'll see what I can do for a little guide :) |
Is there anything new in the installation of a PU7 board? I'm trying to do it myself but it fails to no avail, I'm missing like 4 or 5 points that I can't figure out where they are soldered |
I'll prepare a little guide for it soon :) |
It certainly doesn't help that the PU-7 DSP is undocumented and the pinout not known :p |
I'm going to try it and I'll let you know how the process goes but the bridge was not considered anyway I have 3 SCPH-1000 for testing so if they break it doesn't matter |
I've got it working :> It won't work for you in this state though. It'll require a firmware update. |
Supposedly the PU-7 is supported, but the IC on the top side has a different number (CXD2516Q instead of CXD2510Q) and the QSB I have (100X QSB v1a) does not seem to fit. Is there any way to install the xStation in this model PU-7?
If it is not supported. what japanese models are supported? SCPH-3000 and SCPH-3500 are not listed as supported but do have PU-8 motherboards. would these be compatible with the 100X QSB v1a?
