I would suggest you use Byuu's excellent emulator to test the roms before burning them to the flash chip. BSNES will only load files if they're headerless, de-interleaved and proper (exactly what they were as data inside of Nintendo's ROM chip.

And there's a tool which comes with BSNES that does "purify" the roms for you, cutting headers, identifying and renaming them to ".sfc"...

Great stuff that makes life easier.

Even then, there's methods to salvage the chips !

You can use an scalpel and cut a bit of the epoxy of the chip casing then solder a thin wire on it.

What TSOP adapter are you using for your carts?

willem.. I finally did my first one working.. the Zelda parallel worlds. I think I got the hang of the soldering. I soldered it in like 2 minutes after I ate a nice home made meal. I think All i needed was to eat lol.

no, I mean, the one that you are using to connect the TSOP chip to your SNES boards. Is this from BuyICNow? Which version are you using?
