has anyone successfully extended a 72 pin connector from the board to a external location for the cart tray? I have tried using a shielded ribbon cable and cat5 to extend the 72 pin ~5'. Both tries netted me nothing but a solid gray screen. power light comes on solid, turns gray if I have a cart on the slot. w/o cart power light just blinks and shows a black screen. I have extended the controller ports w/ cat5 and the power wires w/ 18ga primary wire and both work fine. At first I thought it was a resistance problem for the 72 pin and that is when I re-soldered everything w/ cat5. Now I am thinking it may be voltage drop. any ideas? thanks in advance!
