I have cobra 1.1 bios on my viper chip and it was working fine ,but yesterday, when I was playing then I was going to change game and when I tried to start cube, it didn't work. Laser and bios didn't start at all but the normal gamecube bios starts but the laser don't work. Then I couldn't play any game. I flashed the bios again and then it worked again. Then I played one game about two hours and later I tried to play again and it didn't work. What is wrong? Like the bios vanish all the time. I hope that someone could help me. Sorry I don't speak english very well!
I don't know if this could help, but "I JUST THINK" I noticed something strange too, so try the following: Try to unscrew a BIT the 4 long front screws in the controller’s area so as not to be tightly screwed. I found out that if they are tightly screwed the GC won't boot most of the times. I am NOT sure what is going on and if I my notice really states, but more ideas are mostly welcome I suppose!
