Re: Got A Hard Drivin\' Now I need Help! Thanks, I'll give him an E-Mail to see if he has any source ideas. I can't believe he got that thing down a stairway! I have to get mine up a flight when I get it working, and it's the "compact" version! May have to get movers for that one.. Evan

Re: Got A Hard Drivin\' Now I need Help! Well, I thought asking for help on the road to recovery was a bit much....

Got A Hard Drivin\' Now I need Help! Hi All! I had previously posted something like this, but I just got ownership of a nice compact Hard Drivin' machine that needs a bit of help, and I hope someone here can steer me in the right direction! First and most importaint, there is a bad chip on...

Hi all! My buddy recently got a Hard Drivin' machine, and it seems in good shape, except for one chip on the ADSP board is bad, according to the diagnostic so the game won't play. We haven't had any luck trying to find a replacement chip or board. If anyone has a boardset (or even just the...

Hard Drivin\' Help Hi there! My buddy just got a Hard Driving machine and it works except for the fact that when you are actually playing the game, the only visable graphics are your car interior and distant mountains. The road is not there at all. The only thing that seems wrong is upon...

I need to get a couple of small things for my 2 Atari Arcade games. I need 2 of the Atari Coin Return buttons, or if not the entire red piece then the insert. Must have the Atari Logo on it. I also need several of the stickers that have the # of coins for # of plays, again the Atari ones...

Hi All! I have a cocktail game that I currently run Gyruss and Circus Charlie in. I understand that the game Time Pilot should also work. I would like to know what a fair price to pay for one would be, and if anyone has one for sale please let me know! Evan p.s. Also if you happen to have...

Hi all! Just got back from visiting my first Arcade Graveyard. I've seen the pics before about people who get machines then leave them outside for years...Among the victims... Robotron, Joust, Centipede, 2 Ms. Pac-Man machines and a Space Duel. :( The guy that had them said other people had...

I pulled the board again, and gave a look to those transistors, and they look fine. So it's kind of back to square one for me. I'm still trying to get my freind over with his meter to try the flowchart, but he keeps forgettting it at work.. I see that the new defelction boards are out at...

I had a buddy come over today and replace the burned out trace. Also pulled off each transistors and remounted them (they were all correct so I guess one grounded out). When the machine was powered it didn't blow up, and went back to a single horizontal line on the screen. I'm glad at least I...

I looked at Bob's site (where I got the Transistors BTW) but could not find the article, do you happend to know the header to look under? I'm just glad I didn't manage to fry the main game board as well! Evan

Hi! Yeah I figured it was something like that. I didn't check the transistors, but I did replace them one at a time so I know they areb't mixed up. Probably not grounded right :( I have a buddy that works on stuff like this, I'll show him the board over the weekend and see if he can help...

Hi All! Well I was having some trouble with my Tempest display and ordered some new chasis transistors for it. I installed them, reset up the deflection board, powered it up and POP! Sparks and flame came out. Thinking this is not normal I killed the power and removed the board. On the...

I Currently Have only 3 games they are: Battlezone-Full Size Periscope Gyruss-Cocktail Tempest-Upright Evan

Hi Everyone! Just picked up a nice Gryuss Cocktail machine in nice shape, other than needing a cap kit it plays (and of course sounds) awesome! I've been looking around and can't seem to find if there was an "official" table version put out, or if this is something homemade. It's a pretty...

How far is Silver Springs from Las Vegas-I may be able to do a road trip if it's not too far north, and you wanna get rid of them. Evan

Thanks for the answers and the link to the repair manual. As I've said I am new to fixing anything as complicated as this, so I appreciate the advice. Just as a guess I am thinking I will need some kind of meter to tell what is bad and such. Any recomendations as to the features I should look...

Hi All! Well after having my new Tempest just a few days, I went to play it tonight, and no picture....Everything else works except the picture. Actually I do get a pic right in the middle of the screen if I turn the brightness all the way up..Its about one pixel high, and runs horizontally...

Hi everyone! I just wanted to share my good news that after years and years of wanting one, I got a Tempest of my very own! It's in great shape cosmetically and works like a champ, and oddly enough keeps high scores when unplugged..I've also learned they are also VERY heavy bringing them up...

Hi! Congrats on the Battlezone. The Colored overlays go on the monitor itself. I had trouble finding them and had to order them online, so good luck to you on that. Evan
