CD Brake Option for Action Replay version 1.4, 1.5 and 1.7

With versions 1.4, 1.5 and 1.6 of the Action Replay 2 Cartridges you need to carry out that additional modification as below when using the EA method to load a backup game - This will allow the motor drive to stop spinning when CD tray opens - otherwise CD is still spinning at a great rate of knots and CD may be ejected causing damage to the CD and/or yourself or property near by. Simply run a wire from pin 3 on the Neo2.2 chip on the Mainboard to the motor controller chip on the Laser Driver Board as shown below.
