How to Install DMA into a PCIe Lane?
1) Turn your pc off
2) Take off your side panel to access your motherboard.
3) Locate any open PCIe lane. (Yes it fits in all sizes)
4) Push the clip down to open the lane.
5) Insert your DMA card into the PCIe slot and ensure the clip locks it into place. The bracket is not required for installation.
Understanding the DMA itself
How does the DMA work?
A Direct Memory Access (DMA) device allows a secondary computer to read and interact with the memory of a primary PC directly, bypassing the CPU and operating system protections. By accessing memory externally, it can capture real-time data from games or software without triggering anti-cheat mechanisms or impacting the main PC’s performance. This separation enables the secondary system to process, analyze, and display information independently, allowing overlays or software tools to function safely and efficiently while keeping the main PC fully responsive.
Why DMA is better
A DMA is generally considered superior to internal or external software cheats because it operates completely outside the main PC’s system and memory. Unlike internal cheats, which run on the same machine and can be detected by anti-cheat software, or external cheats that read memory through the OS, a DMA accesses memory directly from a secondary system. This hardware-level approach minimizes the risk of detection, eliminates performance impact on the main PC, and provides real-time, reliable access to data, making it safer and more efficient for overlays, tools, or monitoring purposes.
What firmware can I use?
Any provider’s firmware can be flashed onto our cards as their 75T variants. This means the card is compatible with multiple firmware builds, allowing users to run official firmware or firmware from other vendors without restrictions. By supporting these 75T builds, our cards provide flexibility and interoperability, ensuring that users can safely use a variety of firmware while maintaining full functionality and performance.
How do I remove if I want to play legit?
To safely remove your DMA card, first power down the main PC completely. Do not rely on the power switch on the DMA alone, as the board may still receive power and could still be recognized by anti-cheat systems. Once the main PC is off, you may leave the USB cables connected. Then, gently release the PCIe clip and remove the card from the slot. Proper shutdown and removal ensure that the hardware remains intact and both systems are protected from potential damage.
Firmware is Mandatory
Before using your DMA card with any game or software, it is essential that the correct firmware is flashed onto the device. Attempting to launch a game or run tools without proper firmware may result in the card not functioning, potential errors, or issues with memory capture. Always ensure the card is fully flashed and recognized by the secondary PC before starting any session to guarantee safe and reliable operation.
Flexible Setup Options
The DMA card can be set up in any order that works best for you, giving you flexibility in your configuration. You do not need to use aim devices or a fuser to operate the DMA; these tools are optional and not required for the card to function. As long as the secondary PC and main PC are connected correctly, the DMA will capture memory and provide full functionality regardless of setup sequence.
Account Enforcement and Detection
Users may face account enforcement for a variety of triggers. Manual reviews can result in action if suspicious activity is observed. Stat-based systems may flag unusual in-game behavior. AI gameplay analysis can also identify irregular patterns or automated behavior. Firmware on the card can in some rare cases be detected by anti-cheat which is not the same as a firmware block. A firmware block only prevents the card from functioning and does not result in enforcement. Some actions may also occur randomly through anti-cheat detection. If a ban occurs due to hardware identification (HWID) users will need to spoof their hardware to regain access.
How to grab DMA DNA ID
1) Begin by going into the "Downloads" section and grabbing both the "75T Flasher and Drivers" along with the "DNA Grabbing Tools." Make sure your DMA is connected to the JTAG port and powered on before proceeding.
2) This process shall be completed on your secondary computer. Start by extracting and opening the "75T Flasher and Drivers" folder, then navigate to "CH341PAR" and locate "setup.exe." Run it, and the installation window should appear.
3) Press the "Install" button, and you should see a confirmation message appear.
If this message does not appear or instead says "Driver Pre-Installed in Advance," there may be a few simple fixes. First, ensure your DMA has lights on—if not, switch the toggle on the back to the other side or the "On" position. Verify that you are fully connected to the JTAG port, running this process on the second PC to which the DMA is connected, and that your main PC is powered on. If the issue persists, please contact staff through your ticket in our Discord.
4) After installing the driver, you can proceed to obtain your DNA ID. Open the DMA Grabber folder and select the option that matches your card model. Since we ship the third boxed option, run Captian75T-Stark75T-Ch347_75T.
5) After opening the option that matches your card, the interface should appear as shown here, without any blur.
If your interface does not look like this, please open a ticket in our Discord for assistance. Some common fixes include verifying that the DMA is fully connected to the JTAG port, that you are running the process on the second PC connected to the DMA, and that your main PC is powered on.
6) Copy the entire line that starts with 'DNA =' including the sequence of 1s and 0s and the brackets at the end. Paste this line into your ticket in our Discord. This is your DNA ID. Do not share it in public channels.
Please note that once you submit this in your ticket, you are no longer eligible for any refund or reimbursement for the firmware. You also acknowledge that the standard processing time is 1–48 hours, but it may take longer due to unforeseen circumstances.
How to setup your fuser
Starting with taking your fuser out of the box you'll have three extra HDMI cords with it along side the power cord. Note the USB-C can't be used as power and is for EDID flashing (Don't do if not asked to by staff)
- Disconnect your main display cable
Unplug the HDMI or DisplayPort cable from your main monitor. - Connect the fuser to your monitor
Take one HDMI cable and plug it into your monitor’s input port. Connect the other end to the Output port on the fuser. We recommend placing the fuser in a stable location for now. - Connect your main PC to the fuser
Using another HDMI cable, plug one end into your main PC’s GPU output and the other end into Input 1 on the fuser. Ensure all connections are fully seated. - Connect power to the fuser
Plug the circular power connector into the fuser. - Verify operation
The fuser’s front lights should turn on, and your monitor should display your main PC’s output. If there’s no display, troubleshoot this step before connecting a second PC. - Optional – connect a second PC
Once the main PC connection is working, connect your second PC to Input 2 on the fuser.
-
Power Button
The large red power button turns your fuser on or off. You can leave the device on or power it down when not in use — doing so will not harm the unit. -
Indicator Lights (inside the pink square)
These lights may sometimes display incorrect statuses, appear dim, or fail entirely.- D1 – Power: Faded red when the fuser is off or in standby. Bright red when powered on.
- D2 – Active Fusion: Solid red when the fuser is actively combining both displays; otherwise, this light remains off.
- H2 – HDMI Port 2 Status: Indicates activity for the green-labeled HDMI port.
- H1 – HDMI Port 1 Status: Indicates activity for the yellow-labeled HDMI port.
-
K Buttons (last section you may need to adjust)
- K1: Displays resolution.
- K2: Adjusts lower-layer display overlay strength (up to a maximum of 20).
- K3: Resets the lower-layer overlay strength to default.
- K4: Toggles between fusion overlay mode, HDMI 1, and HDMI 2.
How to setup your Makcu Aim Device
1) Before connecting any cables, begin by removing the lid from your Makcu. Ensure it is oriented in the same direction as shown in the picture below.
2) Next, navigate to the 'Downloads' section and install both the AIO Tool and the Makcu firmware.
3) After downloading, extract the files and review the terms below. Connect one end of the USB-A to USB-A cable to your second PC; the other end will be used to flash the Makcu.
4) Start by holding down Button 1 and plugging one usb into USB 1
5) Once the device is connected and in flash mode, you can proceed to flash the left side.
6) A file selection window will open. Navigate to the folder where you extracted the Makcu firmware and select the latest left side firmware to flash.
7) After you've flashed left side unplug the usb. Hit Button 2 and plug usb into USB 3.
8) Once the device is connected and in flash mode, you can proceed to flash the right side.
9) A file selection window will open. Navigate to the folder where you extracted the Makcu firmware and select the latest right side firmware to flash.
10) After the flashes are complete, unplug the cable from the rightmost USB port and reconnect it to the middle port on your Makcu (USB 2). Connect another USB-A to USB-A cable from your main PC to USB 1. Finally, connect USB 3 to your mouse. Once all cables are set up and you have confirmed that your Makcu functions correctly in cheats, you can replace the cover.
How to flash 75T
Here comes the fun part of flashing your DMA card with the new firmware you have received. To start we will show you how to install the driver and then flash the card because it is as simple as 1 2 3.
1) Starting off go to "Downloads" and grab both "75T Flashing Tool & Drivers" Extract it into its own folder. Make sure the file path for both folders does not contain any spaces.
2) Start by opening that folder, locating "CH341PAR," and then running "Setup.exe."
3) Once you are here you should click on install driver, let it do its installing.
If this message does not appear or instead says "Driver Pre-Installed in Advance," there may be a few simple fixes. First, ensure your DMA has lights on—if not, switch the toggle on the back to the other side or the "On" position. Verify that you are fully connected to the JTAG port, running this process on the second PC to which the DMA is connected, and that your main PC is powered on. If the issue persists, please contact staff through your ticket in our Discord.
4) After installing the driver, return to the two folders and open "CH347-main" to begin flashing your DMA.
5) It’s recommended to place your staff-supplied .bin file in this folder for easier access later. Then, open the "CH347FPGATool" folder.
6) Open the "CH347FpgaDownloadTool" application file. The icon resembles a blue virus. You will be greeted by a window that looks like this.
7) To correctly flash your DMA you will need to adjust a few settings first. Start by opening the drop-down menu that says "xc7k325t" and change it to "xc7a75t."
8) After that, move slightly to the right and use the drop-down menu to change the file type from "bit" to "bin."
9) After both of these settings are correct, click the highlighted button below to select your bin file. A file selection window will open. We cannot provide exact guidance here as the location may vary for each user, all you have to do is select the .bin file you've downloaded from staff.
10) After you have selected your bin file, you will see the line next to it fill with text, which is a good sign as it means the tool has found your file. Before proceeding, check a few things. Make sure the file path in that line does not contain any spaces. If it does, you will need to correct them and then reopen the tool. You can fix this by renaming folders or files. Also, ensure that you are using the JTAG port and that your DMA is powered on. Then you can click the button boxed below to start flashing your DMA card.
After a short while, in the dark grey box next to the progress bar, stopping at 100%, you should see a message like "Shutdown command Invoked, Close CH347."
11) Once you see this message, you can safely close the tool and proceed to speed testing. Keep in mind that flashing is not instantaneous. If the process does not complete successfully or an error occurs, provide the details in a support ticket in our Discord for assistance. If it has a massive block of text with no progress bar please send your full screen picture inside of your ticket in our Discord.
Speed Testing the Card
1) First, make sure your DMA is connected to the DATA port. If it already is, you can skip this section.
If your DMA is not in the DATA port, whether due to flashing or gathering your DMA ID, do not worry. Start by restarting your main computer, and while it is rebooting, switch the DMA to the correct port.
2) Once your DMA is connected to the DATA port, go to the "Downloads" section on your second PC and download the "DMA Speed Test."
3) Extract the .zip file into a folder and then run the DMA.BAT file.
4) Once you open the program, let it run for 15 to 30 seconds as it automatically checks for updates. Afterward, you will be prompted to update your files. Regardless of what is recommended, type "N" to skip the update.
5) Do not type "1" for a test. Instead, type "3" and let it run for 15 to 30 seconds. Afterward, take a picture of the results. Even if you understand the results, you still need to submit them in a ticket in our Discord so we can include them in our transcripts. Your picture should look something like the one provided below.
6) After sending your ticket, wait for staff to confirm that everything is correct. There is no need to install any additional drivers. While submitting your speed test results, feel free to ask any questions you have. Once confirmed, you are fully ready to launch your game and enjoy using your DMA.
