			<description><![CDATA[<b><i>Telerophon says:</i></b><p>What you are describing sounds like an intermittent connection, but I&#039;ve never seen a keyboard do that… I wonder if your keyboard is damaged somehow?</p><p>Anyway, I&#039;m not an electronics expert, so this could be over my head; all I would know to do would be to keep checking the connections. There are only four, and two work if your keyboard is getting power…</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<b><i>thursdaycustoms says:</i></b><p>I mean to disrespect to Thretris but you cannot follow colors of wires(I know a lot of people are using this tutorial). You need to use a multimeter of some sort and follow the wires. They&#039;re usually marked on the PCB of the keyboard.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<b><i>Sapr says:</i></b><p>Alright, maybe I am onto something here.<br />Mine flashes all three one time when it is going to work.<br />When other times it more flickers and after the nintendo logo disappears it stops, but I will press enter and the 2 LEDs on the left light up and stay on.<br />Or it will just keep both but the middle on. Maybe I need to rewire? I am hesitant to simply because it would work sometimes before.</p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<b><i>Telerophon says:</i></b><p>Newer keyboards virtually always have printing on the PCB to indicate where to solder which connections.</p><p>Anyway, you really can&#039;t reliably go on the color codes, but if you are using a cable with a brown wire, I&#039;m assuming you used a DMG-07 cable. But, if you have it working some of the time, you probably got the wiring right.</p><p>It sounds like you might have an intermittent connection. I&#039;d check your solder job. If you have the full length of the DMG-07 cable still available and are comfortable opening the keyboard and replacing its cable entirely, as well as soldering on the board, that&#039;s probably a better way to do it long-term. Splicing cables together can be kind of dicey, as the cable is subject to a lot of repetitive stress at the joints, and you might have broken a weak solder.</p><p>I personally build male DMG-04 to female PS/2 adapter cables, as opposed to replacing the keyboard cable or splicing cables together:</p><p><a class="postimg" href="http://stolenti.me/chip/DMG-04-5.JPG" title="Male DMG-04 to Female PS/2 Adapter" id="forum_image_47141268"><img src="http://stolenti.me/chip/DMG-04-5.JPG" /></a></p>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<b><i>Sapr says:</i></b><p>Alright guys, I have a... RT2258TW keyboard, and I am not sure why but whenever I plug it in to my gameboy (phrase and chain of 00 set to keyboard sync at 255 bmp) the keyboard only controls the gameboy like, 1/10 times. But when it does work, it works perfectly. Now, I searched the forums and I couldn&#039;t find any problems like this, so I hope I didn&#039;t overlook one.<br />DMG------keyboard<br />Brown----red<br />Yellow---white<br />Green---brown<br />Blue-----black</p>]]></description>
