Originally they only used 2 screws (one for each L bracket to attach to PCB) and 2 nylatch fasteners (commonly called clip rivets). You can pick up new L brackets on Farnell/Element 14 (huge online electronics retailer), bit hard to find on their website though. They carry numerous sizes and...
I picked a PC10 DM last weekend, which was originally a MTPO (at least the tags on the back say so) and have just now had a chance to plug it in. One monitor was having display issues to begin with so I expected some troubleshooting, the other displayed perfectly fine upon pickup and just now...
I finally picked up a set of joysticks in decent condition and did a full disassembly, cleaning, and greasing... those things were physical in good condition, just really dirty from years of use. It's more or less operational, but I do need some of the following:
1. Leaf buttons and bases (I...
I am looking for the metal portion of the Gauntlet 4 player control panel that attaches to the wood without any extra holes drilled or cut. I believe the Gauntlet 1 and Gauntlet 2 metal portions of the control panel are the same (correct me if I am wrong), so either will due. If you have the...
Yes, it gets it into the right place, but when resetting back to the menu (only shown on the top monitor) the bottom goes black as it should. When starting up any game, even the same game, it still has the same issue. Sometimes it's synced correctly, sometimes it isn't.
I finally capped both monitors (it was just easier to take care of them both at once) and am still having the same issue with the bottom monitor. Do any of you think it could be the pots? Do you have any idea what kind I would need? There are so many available on trbr's website.
The bottom monitor on my PC10 DM seems to keep having random vertical syncs when starting a game. Sometimes it starts up as it should, synced correctly. Other times it begins incorrectly synced. I have found that if the game starts up incorrectly synced, I can hit the reset button and often...
After adding background information and trying a few more things, I traced the problems across the board to 2 solder points that had been bent just enough to touch, looking like a single contact at a quick glance. Thanks everyone for your help.
On a side note, I'm still deciding whether or not...
I've been having difficulty with my PC10DM recently and had to do some wiring checks. While the 20 pin connector pinout was easy to find, I was unable to find any diagrams or wiring info for the correlation between the 12 pin molex that the CP plugs into and the 20 pin connector that plugs into...
[PROBLEM SOLVED]
Controls are acting as if wires are crossed. The second player controls are working perfectly fine, the first player controls cause the B button and R joystick to activate when going to the right and the game controls move to the right and activate the B button when pressing...
I am looking for a working PlayChoice 10 Dual PCB for my PC10 cabinet without a board. I would prefer to find someone who has a game or two to offer as well. I don't care whether or not it has the modified BIOS. If it comes with the original and modified, even better!
If you have the edge board...
