Last week I soldered in a IC socket to plug in the new timekeeper chip that I bought from eBay, and when I turn on the system with it plugged in the main menu has a bunch of garbage at the bottom and no options to play media. If I go into the storage menu (if it doesn't freeze) it shows the chip being completely full, and even if I delete all the data that's supposedly on there it doesn't make any difference. Did I buy a faulty chip? And if so, can anyone point me in the direction of someone who can sell me a chip that's guaranteed to work?

Hello @m0rshh,

Mine has been bought here for my first Philips cd-i

https://fr.rs-online.com/web/p/nvram/3109661

And a second one bought here

The first one form RS is still working after one year but 3 minutes wasted in the year.

The second one is in a Philips cd-i gave to a journalist/YouTuber in charge of a video based on this player.
