Probably 50/50 chance it boots. Runs OK once it boots. Currently has no sound. I've replaced power supply, cleaned up the gun board and connections, and cleaned all the filter board connections. I know Model 2 is power-hungry. Anyone have a suggestion of a good test point on the board? At the...

We're all aware that a lot of arcade art "borrowed" heavily from other sources. Today I stumbled across this album cover on fontsinuse.com. Isao Tomita's album is from 1976 and Galaga from 1981. While the Galaga image is much more dynamic, I'd say it's definitely derivative. A quick search...

I have a Cruis'n World that stopped showing the game on the screen. It has high voltage and neck glow, but just a black screen displayed. Same thing you'd see if you powered up a working monitor with no video signal. Being a pair of cabinets I swung them around and the CW PCB will show video...

This is mostly a note here since the manual is a bit vague on setup and like my used pair may not have the original network hardware. Don't do what I did, make sure the network settings are correct on both cabinets BEFORE you start troubleshooting the network stuff. Network setup process is...

I have a 25" k7000 that's in a converted Mortal Kombat cab. It's in a public arcade, so I found out at one point that sometimes the screen wasn't on. It usually fires up when I power up the machine, but after awhile there will be no picture. I finally caught it while it was off a few weeks ago...

Kortek/Telcovision KT-2602m dark image and streaking This monitor came with a Cruis'n World. Anything white or bright would streak off to the right. I figured I'd start with a cap kit. Eventually gambled that the Sharp Image 325 kit would work (and it did--all values matched). When I installed...

I have a white Arkanoid board with the Taito logo etched on the board and a Romstar serial number sticker. I bought it off eBay and installed it into a Phoenix cabinet. Player 2 always flips upside down and is uncontrollable, but it seems none of the dip switches disable cocktail mode. They seem...

Frogger bootleg - bottom 2 pixels of all text are different colors I've got a Frogger bootleg board that is a very good copy of the Sega board. It seems to be identical to the Falcon board, but doesn't have their name on it. Even uses the Falcon ROMs. I'm muddling my way through learning PCB...

Adjustment to physically adjust Harley Davidson handlebar shaft to be centered I have a Harley Davidson and the LA Riders where the handlebars are always maybe 20˚ or so crooked clockwise. They slide over a grooved shaft and if I rotate it to go in the next groove they are crooked...

WTB Sega Naomi style steering wheel (Crazy Taxi, Jambo Safari, Initial D) [FOUND] I had a cut in in the Crazy Taxi wheel that I'd wrapped in electrical tape. I knew it wasn't a permanent solution, but didn't expect some kid to peel off the tape and intentionally shred the foam. Now I need a new...

Bad gear on Super Off Road 3-player. Other games? 3D printed? I have a 3-player Super Off Road at the local arcade I work at. One of the small gears on the P1 steering wheel has two missing teeth. I'm trying to find a replacement, but I'm striking out on the usual sites. I tried ordering a...

Does anyone make repro CPOs with a proper old-school texture? I'm trying to restore some games for a local arcade I work at and would like the games to be as authentic as they can be. For me the slightly rough tactile feel of the CPO is part of that. I've seen a number of repro CPOs, but I'm...

Not long ago I ended up with a DK cocktail. Powering it up gave me nothing but a "boing" and a red or black screen. A friend of mine had an untested 4-stack board, so we swapped boards around and figured out the non-booting issue seems to be with my clock board (which I'll work on later). I'm...

In a recent haul of boards a couple friends and I got Golden Axe and ESWAT. GA runs perfectly, but ESWAT has no sound, so I was going to swap the ROM boards to troubleshoot. But once swapped the games won't start up at all. Both boards still have suicide batteries/processors. I did notice that...

If this breaks any of the forum rules, let me know, but AFAIK 2.3 was a free upgrade to operators anyway. I have Primal Rage PCB that's working great, but it was never upgraded to the 2.3 version. This adds a lot of balancing, new finishing moves, and Street Fighter style controls. I have...

How was extra power wired in a dedicated Primal Rage? Somewhere around 2002 I bought a Primal Rage cabinet that had been converted to Tekken 3 (dead PCB included). I replaced the power supply and since then it's been my "JAMMA Cabinet" that I swap boards in. I finally got a Primal Rage PCB, and...

I have a K4600 chassis and just found a Zenith TV with a tube that is compatible. Unfortunately, I don't have the frame. I have the tools and know-how to make a sturdy frame out of plywood, but wondered if this would cause any grounding issues (since it would normally be connected to the metal...

Was helping a friend out who just bought his first game (Ms. Pac). There was no picture, but the game would play blind. I pulled the chassis and finally got around to putting in the cap kit. Plugged it all back up tonight, and after tweaking some knobs we have a good looking picture...

As a hobbyist, I'm pretty experienced with video games, but I'm new to pins. So far I'm loving every minute of it. I'm tackling an Indinapolis 500. The LEDs on all of the boards come on, but no lights and no game. The only LEDs on the CPU board lighting up are the top and bottom one (staying...

I have a Primal Rage cab that I'm using to swap out JAMMA boards. Up until recently I only had Mr. Driller 2 and Soul Edge v2 (Namco system-10 and system-11 boards). They've worked perfectly with the monitor (Neotec 2525c 25"). I just picked up a stack of JAMMA boards and a couple are...
