it turns out the console i just got is a V4, not compatible with the DMS4 E.Z.I. Rather than forking out $50+ for another chip i'm wondering if i could cut the Solderless DSP and Bios Piggybacks off the wires and solder them to the locations on the board? or is the E.Z.I wired diffrently?

Yes i know how to solder, i bought the E.Z.I for a V7 and wanted to avoid digging out the soldering irons. The V7 died so i replaced it with a V4, only to find out the V4 isn't compatible with the E.Z.I.

If i can solder the E.Z.I i'd be more than happy, i'd prolly need some form of directions to tell me which wires go to which spots on the board

Edit : While browsing google i stumbled upon a picture of a EZI that was soldered in, the person removed the mirco-connect plugs and soldered directly to the chip, no diagrams though. Guess that means it's possible i'd just need the diagrams.

Edit: Console V4, Gap bios (no gap bios clip),CXD1869 DSP (the end that i removed off the dsp clip) The Dms4 Ezi isn't very old, maybe a month n a half so it seems kind of redundant to buy yet another chip.

Edit : using some diagrams and recomendations from the dms3 forum i think i have it figured out, the only wire i'm not seeing anywhere on the bios clip is C.
