Not a big deal really when you can install it to the memory card just as easy with out the need of a whale boat of a mod chip just to hold a flash memory chip large enough to install HDloader to the mod chip its self. The DMS4 is extremely large in my opinion and difficult to make tight, clean, short wire installs.

The problems people where having did have to do with the diagrams, but not the way in which you have described it. No one has trouble with the 10 different jpeg diagrams. It’s the install points them selves on the diagrams. I don’t think the V10 diagrams suffered from this problem but the v3, v5, and I think V7 diagrams where all together wrong on a few of the install points. They have since fixed this and the new diagrams on there site are correct.

The real problem with the DMS4 is with ground bounce. Once again not so much on the V9/V10's (in fact haven’t seen it yet on these versions) but on the V4, V5, and V7's I have seen it first hand. Even with short thick ground wires this happens. Its not too much of an issue as normally a quick reset will bring it out of the ground bounce, but its still an issue that there competitors chips seldom suffer from.

Here is my (some what of a) review of the DMS4 and toxic bios/OS
