Ok i got 5 dreamcast that need controller ports.....Does anyone know of any place wear i can get controller ports? Also would a disconnceted battery cause a controller port to stop working?

ok i found a tut on how to change the fusable resister but idk if thats what the prob is, would the led light up if the fusable resister was dead???

Yes, the LED would light up if the resistor was blown. I don't believe a disconnected battery would result in the controller ports not working.

Ok thanks, so it must be the resister in it bc the led lights up and everything but the ports just dont work. Thanks for the help.

Yeah its definately the F1 resistor, you can simply bypass this and the DC will work fine.

yay i got all of them working but only 2 work fully, my new problem is that when i put a disc in one then it loads the disk then after about 7 seconds on the game menu it will cut off and go to the main dreamcast screen ( wear it boots to when you turn it on without a disc) has anyone else had this problem?
