Fatal fury 3 plays blind , metal slug x no response
Recently got two mvs carts off the bay, to try and fix them up. Fatal fury 3 boots up and you can hear the game intro and everything. no neo Geo logo at start up, it shows the winners don't use drugs and then goes black again. Tried reflowing everything but no luck. What's the video chip on these things? Next step? I definitely want to learn how to fix carts


Metal slug x just goes to crosshatch. I examined this one and it looks mint. Right when I was goona give up I remember reading somewhere that if you see a bump or hump in a chip then it's gone bad and that's exactly what I found. The light on the bottom chip there sort of shows the hump in the chip, best way I could get a pic of it

"Your going to need to examine your PROgram board . Examine your P-1 chip.......Does it have a bulge protruding from the center of it? If so,it's fried.You may have to examine under well lit area to notice.
