not trying to make a quick buck here, but i can offer something to you that makes running PS1 in coventional more enjoyable. If you get a manual you will see how you can activate certain features using combos of whistle and I think bell buttons. It's rather difficult to execute though as the timing has to PERFECT.
There is a device that I bought and used when I had a PS1 engine called a PowerProgrammer. It has the added advantage of having spike protection built in. Say you want to execute PS1 feature #5 - you could look up the right combo of clicks and do it if lucky or you just tell the programmer to execute function 5 and it does the combo perfectly for you.
If you think you're interested in it I will sell you mine. Email me if so.
