Issues dumping Namcot Klax and Namcot Phelios #2

Closed MadburyUK closed 2 years ago

MadburyUK commented 2 years ago

Hi,

Having dumped 120 cartridges now with MD-Dumper I'm starting to run into a couple of cartridges which will not dump. Specifically:

Klax (JPN) the Namcot version not the Tengen version Phelios (JPN) Namcot

I'm running the software on Windows 10 Pro. Both cartridges have been cleaned and run without issue on my Mega Drive. When I try to dump them using MD Dumper the software does not appear to register the cartridge - no header information is displayed - blue light on the PCB is on and solid as it should be.

Happy to help troubleshoot this issue given some direction.

Hi,

Update...

Phelios dumps successfully using manual dump with a size of 512KB. SHA corresponds with published good dumps. Klax (Namcot) dumps successfully using manual dump with a size of 256KB. SHA corresponds with published good dumps.

Perhaps Namcot did not use the standard header format?!
