Got the Zero Key needed to load decrypted game images in the Naomi NetDimm

I had to remove the surface plate to install the chip. The original GD decryption keys had a packaging that allowed the chip to be installed and removed easily.

Now all that’s needed is the new BIOS.

New Project to work on alongside the Naomi Universal Cabinet restoration.

Just received a Netboot Dimm module. Been looking for this for a while now.

This will allow the Naomi to boot game data from a network computer. My plan is to use a Raspberry Pi to transfer data.

Still need a few more parts:

• Decrypted security key for the Dimm
• Naomi BIOS compatible with the DIMM
• Raspberry Pi and LCD display for data loading

I’m also going to do a battery capacitor replacement on the motherboard first, as they leak over time eventually killing the board.
