Hello all!

I have the japanese Mega-SCSI, and well, the problem is that sometimes (weeks, months...) the SRAM erases itself and I have to setup it again.... Does anyone knows why the memory disappears?? :S

thank you!!

Have you replaced the internal battery?

I think it has a rechargeable battery. If you don't use it for a while the battery will go flat and then the content of the sram is lost.

But if it has a battery, the normal thing would be to lost all data in SRAM forever not "living" for a couple of weeks and then diying... (again and again)

I've found some games that erase the MegaSCSI SRAM when I load them. Maybe that's your problem...
