Help with DS Capture Card Installation

Post by BossKirby » Sat Apr 11, 2015 7:19 pm

Hey. I got my DS Capture Card today and I've been trying to install the card, but I have one problem. I've reached the part where you have to disconnect the upper LCD cable from the mainboard, but I can't find the small black tab mentioned to disable the lock. I tried most tutorial videos to find it, but they either don't show it or try to show it, but it's still unclear. If anyone could post a picture of specifically where this tab is, that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
BossKirby

Thank you very much. I've managed to unlock the tab and install the capture board into place. I have, however, run into yet another problem. When I tried to test the DS to make sure it works, it would just flicker on the bottom screen quickly and turn off. I took off the capture card to test the DS by itself, and it still works. Did I put in the cables wrong (bottom screen to P3 and top screen to P2)? Did I mess up while putting in the cables themselves (I relocked the tab)?

It will flicker and turn off if the cables aren't in right. Make sure they're all the way in and facing the right way.

You were right. One of the cables weren't secured in all the way. I adjusted it and now everything works just fine. Thank you so much for all of your help.
