Hi, I'm in a bad place with my defender right now. I had a rug/reset issue, so after much reading here I bought a 4164 ram upgrade and the harness from Riptor here at Klov, the game seemed to be more stable for longer, but still reset etc. then I went to turn the game on a couple weeks ago, and sometimes I got nothing, monitor was black, although when I powered down u could see a flash of light disappearing on the screen-so something was happening. Anyway I ordered the battery upgrade and p/s rebuild kit from bob roberts, I reflowed everything and lightly sanded the pins, everything went well I thought, I have 4.90 volts now at the ram chips 11.98 at the test points on the p/s but I now I still get nothing , no start up noise, I tried resetting, I'm wondering if it is stuck in reset? When I try to soundboard "reset" button I get the free ship sound, but it just cycles that same sound over and over. I have a decent test meter tonight here at the house, does anyone have any ideas? I have reseated all the roms as well. Help please?!?
