Replace Katsukity Board with Loopy Board

Post by Czarcasm » Sat Jan 27, 2024 11:28 pm

May be a stupid question but I have a New3dsXL capture card that recently failed that I got installed by Delfino Customs a few years ago since I don't think anyone else was working on N3dsXL yet. Is it possible to get it replaced by a Loopy board or is it not possible for some reason due to how the Katsu Board was installed?

It should be fine if you remove it, but you'll still have the cutout from the katsukity board unless you get a replacement back cover.

What's wrong with it?

I can't seem to get it to work with the capture program anymore, it's just stuck on "Initializing the capture device" and if I restart the program it says "Capture Device not found" until I unplug and plug it back in again. I've tried changing usb ports, usb cords, rebooting, etc.

Have the same issue with one that I bought broken. No idea what the cause is.

Your PRAM got corrupted. This happens in two scenarios.

Defective USB port - semi bricked, if you move the cable it connects/disconnects.. then the upload of the micro firmware is interrupted in middle and corrupts the PRAM.

You are using a second Keity system simultaneously, so the wrong micro code gets uploaded.
