Leaving the region changer wire connected...

Hi there,

I have a spare Dreamcast that doesn't boot up correctly. I cant remember the exact symptoms as it was over 10 years ago (and its in a different country) but I suspected at the time it was because I stupidly left the wire permanently connected for the region changer mod.

Im not sure of the component that gets damaged when leaving this wire connected but: If I install a region free bios, will this cure the problem?

THe only way is to try, a bios is cheap and the pcb too.
It's easier ton install than before.
