NAND X INSTALL SLIM INSTALL
There are some very good videos, particularly here: TX DemoN install - Trinity SlimĪlso, use the images included in J-Runner as a guide for wiring and solder points! This is done to make sure everything is operating correctly. Using either J-Runner or DemoN Toolbox, make sure you can read the NAND on the DemoN.Connect a Micro-USB cable to the DemoN (make sure the switch is set to PC).Unbox everything, and make sure you have all of your wiring packages, quick solder boards, and everything else that is supposed to come with what you ordered.Most of these don't have pictures, as they are fairly straight forward. Now that all of the equipment arrived I began the initial steps.

Everything looks original and unmolested! Lacking parts, I took the remaining time to analyze the board and inspect all of the hardware mounting and soldering points for both the Coolrunner and DemoN install. So, I ordered a G2R2 laser from e-bay for a respectable $6.25, and will be replacing that as soon as parts arrive. I had to track down a cover from ebay to replace the missing spindle!Īfter testing the laser, I discovered it also needed replacing. That's not all that is missing, so is the magnetic clamp to keep the disc secured while spinning! No wonder the disc was slipping. You can see here that the firmware sticker is missing. However, upon inspection my fears became reality that the drive had been tampered with. The next step was to disassemble the DVD drive, which was fairly straight forward. For a much better guide on disassembly, I'd suggest this video: As a result, disassembly became an immediate priority. Testing the DVD proved futile, as I could audibly hear the disc slipping when the drive attempted to spin.
NAND X INSTALL SLIM UPDATE
I'll need to update the Dashboard to 14719 later when performing the install. Great! Being less than 14719 means I can avoid having to deal with a DGX board to obtain the CPU keys. The first step was to identify the dashboard version: Phase 1 simply consisted of evaluating the hardware to determine what all would be needed along the way and preparing for the eventual hardware modifications.
