I bought a Bosconian and it was working great. I think my problem is I tend to have these games on more than the average person, being they are in my store and it looks really crappy to have some of them off when people walk in where it's really cool to have them all on when you walk in.
I am not complaining at all about this by the way, I got a great deal on this and a qbert and I'm VERY happy with the whole experience.I expect problems mostly because of my horrid luck (you've seen my luck with things, right Jeff?)
The seller says he only had it on for a bit at a time and I had it on for hours and was getting a "RAM 4L" error. Sometimes it says "QAM 4K" but I assume that's an error of some kind because if I turn it on and off it goes back to "RAM 4L".
When it first did it yesterday, after being on maybe 3 hours, many of the chips felt real hot so I left it off an hour and the game played fine again. After about an hour it got the error again and I just left it off for the night.
Today when I came in I turned it on and it got the error right away, tried it a few times and it's always one of those two error messages. Can anything be causing this besides bad ram? I guess I should just order ram and try it.
Which beings me to my real question, what kind of ram does Bosconian use and where can I get it from?
I thought it might be the same as Galaga but they only have 16 legs where Galaga's have 18? (http://www.arcadechips.com/product_info.php?products_id=37)
Thanks.
