Sorry yet again for the long reply, further personal shit has cropped up an haven't been able to work on it. Will try get some time soon so may bump again but for now, thanks again and sorry.

Ok, i'll check em again with the auditory beep. I'm getting a very very high reading from them is all. Something like 289 megohms, which is absolutely nothing in terms of connectivity. Haven't tried it with the auditory setting though, so will. Ta

oh, an one more question if you don't mind... What readings should I be getting between the cut jumpers? I'm sure i've cut right through them but still not getting a completely open reading. Thanks

Hi again, afraid it's taking longer than I thought to find a decent camera. Here, however, is a crappy picture of the one suspect part of the board i can find http://i379.photobucket.com/albums/oo231/mraize/26112012226.jpg (think it's too big to put in this thread, tried earlier) I need some...

thanks for the reply... It'll probably be a couple of days before i can sort a better picture out, since I have to borrow a camera (only got a shitty camera phone) Can't help but think I fried something though, would leaving that pin in the pal and connecting it to the jumper cable definitely...

Hello again to all. First off, I humbly apologize for my letting this thread die without thanking everyone for their help. I absolutely wouldn't blame anyone for not wanting to help any more as I know it's very annoying when someone does this... Anyways, excuses... Had personal shit to deal with...

so, looks like that wasn't it.. Tested the 3 pins that looked corroded and it all bells out ok, but there's still the same graphics problems. I suppose one of the other shiny pins could be corroded, but it doesn't look likely. I'm 99.9% certain that all the jumpers and the pal chip are wired...

Ok, think i've found the problem. One of the 2 custom chips near the battery does actually have a bit of corrosion on 3 of the pins. Question is though, how do I fix it? I would post a picture, but for some reason, i'm not able to at the moment. Keep getting error messages from the manage...

Hi there, so, yes I did the conversion myself and to the best of my knowledge, the game was working before, till it wasn't (suicided) There is no acid damage that I can see, or broken traces, but i'll have another, closer look, when I get back from work. Thanks.

further pics. Sorry for the quality, only have a crappy camera phone.. And thanks again for the ideas.

Ok, so... the only thing I can see which comes close to a self check, is the screen where it identifies the region... Other than that, it's just the capcom logo and phoenix logo... (pic at bottom of post). Also, have added pictures of the board but try as I might, I can't find anything obviously...

so unfortunately I don't have another asian a board to check with but I do have a different b board (marvel superheroes) and the a board works fine with that one... Also, gonna look like a complete plank here, but what exactly are the self checks at the start? oh, an thanks a lot for the...

Hello all. I've got a progear conversion with some graphics problems and was really hoping for a hint or two on where the problem might be. So far, i've tried reburning the program roms and the graphics roms with no luck. I've tried cleaning all the contacts, still no luck, tried taking the...

bump for an old thread. Did this ever get fixed? I've got a board with a similar problem an i'd really like a couple of pointers as to where to start.
