i did this and snopped the wire on the resister.. but then i literally just pressed it back in the hole and pressed down and it worked!!!!

@SavageMatt15 - Awesome! Glad your DC is working!

How did you found out that the controller ports on the dreamcast stop working?

[farmhousemedia3000]

@4houseofthedead - Um, none of the controllers would work.

[vietboyxduy]

how exactly should the wires look when they are touching?

[farmhousemedia3000]

@vietboyxduy - They should be crossing each other in sort of an upsidedown V shape with the resistor above. Just turn the resistor 200 degrees or so.
