Nme 360 Hardware Question
« on: July 09, 2008, 07:09:00 PM »

what/which wire(s) supply power to the chip? At a glance, i would think +5v. an electrician mentioned something about a dip switch. i don't know anything about that, but i wanna connect the power wire(s) to a manual switch, as i never trust automatic features.

Jeeze, obviously it would if you're cutting power to the chip. But you need to make sure you're still booting with only a tap of the power button rather than holding it (like you would for a backup). If you don't do it correctly meaning you try to boot holding down the button with the switch off, you'll probably get a nice system crash. Pretty self explanatory if you know anything about electronics.
