My monitor just went out on my 1943 machine. All the video comes up scrambled and it looks like its a horizontal sync issue. I have tried all the adjustments and nothing works. I also did a cap kit on this monitor about a year ago.
Just to make sure it wasn't 1943 I tried a different...
I just picked this up today (its got arkanoid DOH in it) and I have never seen a cab like this. Below are are two pictures. It looks like dragons below the coin door.
Thanks.
I had forgotten my password today, and I noticed that the check box for reseting your password is not there anymore. Luckily I was able to remember later.
I got opportunity to pickup a Dataman S4 for $15 bucks( + $8 bucks shipping). Does anyone know if this is a good programmer for the majority of the arcade eproms?
Thanks.
Now that I got rid of the ram errors the board hangs at the "RAM OK" screen. All the references I have found point to a +5 voltage problem with this problem. I do have a switching power supply and have adjusted the voltage between 5.00 - 5.20 . But I have been measuring from the power supply...
I've order twice now within the last 2 years and everything has been perfect with Mikesarcade. Great packing and very fast shipping.
Thanks MIKE! if your on here....
I am trying to figure out whats wrong with my gallag board. Its the green dual pcb version with a "SUN" label on one corner.
I have read most of the repair logs on gallag and galaga and it all comes down to replacing the 2114 ram chip 6F. I replaced and socketed all new 2114 ram on the board...
Now that I got the video issue fixed I am now having a sound issue. Specifically nothing but puttering comming out of my speaker. I am using the original sound amp from the 20ez and using the edge connector of the DK jr board for the sound input. Its almost like a constant pulse every 2...
I got a DK jr. board where just the sprites are made up of vertical lines(distorted) that seem to sparkle. Everything else is fine, like when it shows the high scores the screen is perfect. Only when the characters come onto the screen do I see this sprite corruption. I already eliminated the...
I just finished a cap kit installation on a K4900 and everything looks great. The only problem I still have is vertical centering. I can change the vertical size, but i cannot shift picture up or down. Any suggestions?
Does anyone know the labeling scheme for the inverter cable to the PCB? The wires all have a unique marking. E.g. Black line, big dashes, small dashes, etc. I am trying to find out the R,G, B, GND, SYNC.
Thanks.
I recently got a DK Jr cabinet that was converted to sky soldiers. Don't ask me why this was done! But the wiring was quite a hack job. I got everything striped out and I am refinishing the cabinet right now.
The machine has the Sanyo 20EZ monitor that includes the inverter board, but the...
I just got a mint B & K 467, but I had to buy the cr-23 adapter($40 U.S). Thats more then I paid for the 467!!! I'm going to try it on the one weak monitor i have. Any tips or anything I should be aware of???
Ghouls \'n Ghosts
I just a got a Ghouls 'n Ghost board which seems to be corrupt. When running the text is messed up. For example where its supposed to say insert coin it says "isr on". Its like its skipping characters. It does this on all the text displayed. Also Arthur (the main sprite...
