I use the Crystal fix cos its nice and simple to install. Is this enuf protection or do I still risk burnout?

I tried the Neofix II once but it stopped the PS2 from powering up! Looks dodgy too...

blah.... no one knows what the best fix is. I have installed over 50 of these and not had a single issue. All the fixes out there are experimental and all seem to have been fairly successful. We might be installing the comsoft or the subzero (new summone fix) fix soon.

I know that 8 diode doesn't protect the coils (1.2volt is too big)...and the K point (the point that is controlled by the pic) doesn't do his work on every "block"....

aaahh, i use a 100k // with the 105 resistor (1Mohm) near the Z point

excuse me for my bad english

Keeping my ear close to the ground on the Summone fix. I've read just about every post and there are so many contradicting comments.

For the whole part, it's nice and simple to install and so far looks to have a great success rate. Gonna try it on a v12 of a good friend so I can monitor.

Here's my first v12 mod using Crystal 8 diode fix... http://www.users.on.net/~boros/DMS4%20v12.htm

Ah another Ozzie on the scene!

Let me know how you go - take note of whether you have a wide laser SPU3170 G or a narrow laser PVR802 as the fix seems to have killed at least two wide lasers by making one coil go open...

Example of the fix using SMT resistors with wide lens - worked for weeks until one of the coils went open - possibly manufacturing fault, bad luck or use of GTA:SA by customer
