Solution to my problem (I'm dumb ^^)

[DutchDemon]

maybe with good equipment soldering to the resistance would be easier, but with my stuff, the capacitor was a whole lot easier
i was just wondering, should i upgrade my chip? or only if i start encountering problems?

Edit: My driv3r backup isnt working... it just gives a black screen.
Ive updated my chip to 1.36, but it gave a black screen before that too. Has anyone managed to backup his driv3r? maybe i did something wrong..

edit: o great. i just found out that no backup is working properly now -.-
it all looks like this. the piece of text is supposed to be in the middle :/
i tried flashing it back to an earlier version but the earliest on the site is 1.3, and there it does that too :'(
anyone has firmware 1.2? (thats what it had before, it worked...)

edit: i found 1.21 on the site, its working now. still curious as to what the problem is though....
if i look at the patch logs, then this is changed inbetween 1.3 and 1.21, so it has to be one of those...
- ATAD auto patch.
- HDD browser support.
- PS2 color/videomode fix.
- GameAccellerator function for PAL machines (beta).
- Selectable default boot mode.
- Default language selection for FastBoot/MC applications.
- Selectable pad detect time.
- DEV1 compatible mode for MC applications.
- Infinity options configuration screen.

since it has something to do with the displaying, i guess it would be the PS2 color/videomode fix... no idea why it makes it wrong for me though..
