    Welcome to Episode 5 of... The Texas Load! We're driving 2,800 miles round trip to buy a 900lb (!!!) lot of untested video game consoles… and we’re finally here! Let me know what you think about everything we got on this HUGE pallet… After this week, we will have weekly videos going through every console to test and then repair/refurbish as needed. We will then be using our profit on each console to build a sweet limited edition console collection (specifics will be revealed in next week’s video).
    Go check out all of The Texas Load episodes: • I drove 1,400 miles to...
    Here is the video schedule for the week:
    Monday 7/17 3:30pm EST - Episode 1
    Tuesday 7/18 3:30pm EST - Episode 2
    Wednesday 7/19 3:30pm EST - Episode 3
    Thursday 7/20 3:30pm EST - Episode 4
    Friday 7/21 3:30pm EST - Episode 5 (this will be the "unboxing" of the ENTIRE 900lb lot of consoles - a HUGE video!)

    The piano you had was a Rock Band 3 Keyboard controller. Been meaning to pick one of those up for a while since I picked up Rock Band 3 again, pretty niche controller that unfortunately didn't make a return in RB4, but I loved the branching out to further instruments. The number of songs that got left out due to a lack of proper keyboard support always made me sad. It unfortunately came too late for the game it arguably would have made the biggest impact for (The Beatles: Rock Band, not having Let It Be or Hey Jude was almost criminal, but neither really fit since the game didn't have keyboard support), but thankfully an exploit enabled custom songs in Rock Band 3 that at least allowed those songs to make their way into a Rock Band game eventually. Fun times.

    So I don't know if you know already, but I'll say anyway to be safe - for that backwards compatible PS3 and any other old fat model like it, you can solder some wires to a chip called the SYSCON on the motherboard and it will dump out error codes for whatever hardware problem it has. You can read some more about it over at PSXplace, would be interesting to see it used in a repair and have it be something as mundane as a capacitor!

    What happens with 360 disk drives is that the drive mechanism is no longer strong enough to break the grip of the magnet inside. By weakening the hold of the magnet, such as by keeping a disc inside, the drive will now eject every time.
    Given that the Wii is easier to mod than the 360 I would have thought that those systems would be of higher resale value, especially if you mod them first before selling.

    You can test the HD-DVD drives by plugging them into a Windows 10 PC. If it does not work but you see the memory units in device manager, MOST of the time that means the single capacitor on the power board has failed. Replace it and the drive will be back up and running. Better odds than a sealed Warner Bros. HD-DVD.

    Just take those PS3s to someone who knows how to read the syscon and see if their problem is the GPU or some chips on the board(don't remember what they are exactly) but they are repairable. Or do it yourself with information available on youtube/forums and if you have the skills and equipment. Basically the PS3s require reballing and/or changing some chips under the GPU/CPU but you find out exactly what they need by reading the syscon. There was a one hour long video or something like that on youtube that really explained basically everything about YLOD, documentary type thing.
