Unirom won't run if Xplorer is connected to the Parallel IO port #116

Hi. I have at least four SCPH-1002 that doesn't run Unirom when you enter the exploit if some Xplorer cartridge is connected to the Parallel IO port. Had anyone this problem with any 100X before?

The exploit runs perfect and enters Unirom if the IO port have no cartridge connected.

I mean... then just use the xplorer instead? The exploit is really meant to be useful for people who don't have the means to otherwise run arbitrary code, but the whole purpose of the xplorer is to inject code within the boot process and interfere with it, and overall provides a much faster and better UX than trying to use the exploit.
