Cametron, that would work, but it would also require another hand full of parts.
CSA3d, I used whichever pin stayed high during the boot process. remember, Mrotate2 sets all outputs low when it first starts, so us eone that turns on high when computer boots.
Monmotha, I didnt know this. i will have to try it when I get home.
CSA3d, yes, you can use pins 10 and 11, just set mrotate2 to invert pin11.
I think those terminal bloacks are called euro blocks(?) I ordered some from digikey. (Radio Shack doesnt have them).
*Edit* I misread the post... I think I can set pin 1 high, just another revision.
Level42: I tried that on my BIOS, it didnt work for me. But I have found that computers act differently, so it's worth trying.
You all do know that i went through this about a year ago and just about wrote a book on it LOL.
Here is a post from my original thread:
http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=72750.msg758713#msg758713I think I posted links to where I got my parts, including the terminal blocks.
Honestly, since you have already wired in the two transistors, I would just try the third one. It was so simple and it worked perfectly for me. still working today. well, not today since I removed my arcades computer to use while my desktop is down. (Ref my rant in Everything Else). But im 100% sure it will work when I put the arcade back together.
