Yes, I know I need to cut that trace, but it's alway beeping. I can't cut more than that, If I continue I will make a hole
Seriously? more deeper?
OK. I work in a hospital and I can get a disposable scalpel blade. I'll try it with that tomorrow.

In my opinion cut and use a tester, il is not enough cut again
Of course, I always use a tester to verify, I make a cut and always verify , but it continue beeping after every cut.
Like I said before, tomorrow will try with a disposable scalpel blade.

You are absolutely right. There is thin trace that connet the pad. I tried to use the razor blade and cut it, then test it with multimeter however it's still shorted. Any tips on how to cut trace clean and nice?
¡Jajajaja! Sí, lo he entendidoUsa un cutter, campeon!Eso si que lo has entendido, eh??
Es lo que he usado, un cutter.
Esta tarde probaré con el bisturí desechable. Debería ir mejor.
I use either of these, depending on how big the cut needs to be;
Small/precise cuts:
bigger cuts:

Gotta tell you guys that it was tough as to cut the trace. I cut it quite deep and it's still shorted. Only got 1 OPEN after half an hour.
Good PCB trace design i guess

must say I find that surprising, I did it a few times and found it very easy to cut, just cut with a decent sharp knife like the ones I showed above and that's it.
Really the sharpness of the blade is key here
IT'S WORKIIIIIIING!!! WOOOHOOOOO!!!
Finally!! The kit works flawlessly. Thank for all the help!
And now I have another problem I can't close the lid (of course, I have removed the supporting leg) the problem is the LCD connector. Any idea?

I had the same issue. You need to remove the little plastic clip from one of the connectors, either by cutting with some flush cutters or wedging a flat head underneath and prying upwards.

- This time, I've cut all the traces and tested as seen in this video here
- Then i plug all the board in, make sure all pin straight and seated correctly.
- Unsolder all the keywriters wires
- Plug in SDcard with "old" decrypted rom set
To add more salt on the wound, on the 11th detach board attempts, one pin got bended and when I try to straight it up, it's snapped off... i'm so pissed and fruistrated at the same time

I think I will ship the whole B-board with the CPS2 Darksoft kit back to you. I'm thinking there might some issue with the kit
I can say that jumpers would not affect the LCD operation. I have a kit coming to me with the same symptoms as you have. Let me look at it and determine the issue and then we can move from there.
