My GDROM may be dead. Seems when I booted the GDROM with my Sun PSU, the PSU wasn't outputting enough juice to even power on the system. The Sun PSU may be on its last legs. I rigged up a separate JST connector to an ATX PSU to power the GDROM separately. Then used the Sun PSU to power the NAOMI only. The system powers up, but I still get Error 24. I know that is typically indicative of a bad SCSI cable, but I have used two different SCSI cables and they are the official GDROM cables. So it is likely not the cable. I can pick up the GDROM and hear the disc spinning inside, so I do have power to the GDROM.
Anyone ever repair a GDROM with Dreamcast parts can give me pointers? All I am trying to do is use the firmware disc to update some Dimm's. Then I can put away the GDROM.
