This is what I used. They are cheap and good for other projects. Just get Female to Female.

Good News, I tried a new "B" board and the kits is now working with one exception, the LCD. Not only did the new board not change things with the LCD but it actually stopped selecting games. The LCD was selecting games at first, then it stopped. I checked both set of cables. So the LCD doesn't...
I'm going to take a break from this kit until next week. Then I'm going to try a different "B" board (I have 6 to choose from). If that doesn't work, I'll pack it all up and send it to you guys! LOL! and let you all figure it out. :)
No
No obvious tampering with the "B" Board. So, I think it was originally a SF II The NEW CHALLENGERS and it was converted by Capcom to MVC. There is a MVC sticker right over the SF II TNC sticker. The only thing that looks as though it was changed were the jumpers. Using a multimeter, I checked...
I'm not frustrated yet. I know it will be worth it. I'm just hoping no one thinks I'm a pest. I'm trying to dot every "I" and cross every "t". You have the same Big Blue model as me! The Q sound is just incredible! I should probably say a little about myself. I do collect Arcade Machines. I also...
@ekorz, I noticed the redline going the other direction on the PDF for the LCD. It only fits in one way as it has tabs. I tried two different cables. However, I don't know if you read further up, I can still select and enter roms, I just can't see them. I'd imagine if the cable wasn't connected...
When I said I checked them and their fine, I mean, I checked them with a Multimeter and they are fine. I'm actually not a noob. This is my first time with a DarkSoft product; however I do modding all the time.
I tested everything and it was fine as far as the jumpers go. I did some experimenting, the first set of Jumpers are closed, open, open, closed. I changed it to closed, open, closed, open and then reversed it. Changing the configuration caused a scrambled picture. I did return it to it's...
What is the configuration? The same as the original DarkSoft configuration? I thought, part of the point of the Darksoft Champion Edition was that you didn't have to mess with Jumper. What about the LCD?
Looks like the Jumpers may have been changed at some point. Other then the battery, which is now removed; it doesn't look like anything has been reworked.
It didn't work without the PAL. It would do it's loading thing and go to a red screen. MVC booted fine. The PFD said Jumpers didn't matter with DS Champion Edition. These are my jumpers.
I tried three different Micro SD cards; a 1 gb, 4 gb and a 16 gb by SanDisk. They are all class 4 and they all seem to work. Try a Different G Pal? I just have the one I ordered. I don't have extra stuff for this kit, just what was ordered. I did a rom test with AVP. Everything said, "OK"...
I tried two cables. It came with the short cable and the long cable I purchased. Both cables had the same results; a blank screen. Here are some pictures of the install.
