And now at least six months (probably more) later, I've gotten anew Dreamcast and yet the same problem comes up.

Don't feel like digging through post. What's the battery issue?

VMU batteries die fast. You don't lose your saves or anything, but they do an obnoxious beep at you every time you star the system up if the battery is dead.

Umm... I was under the impression that the issue posted was regarding the consoles internal battery and not the VMU...
I got one! I once converted a PAL ISO of Sword of the Berserk to NTSC and tried playing it with the most awesome results - characters appendages would gyrate and curl up in disturbing ways during the cutscenes. It was like watching marionettes get tangled in each other. Eventually the gameplay would start and shortly after the main character would get stuck in the ground or something, but if you have a pile of spare blanks, I fully reccomend trying it.

Simply open the VMU and give that red and black wire a little yank.

Of course. The only thing you have to do is cut the connection with the little speaker. That's all. Disconnecting just one of those two wires should be enough to break the circuit.
