Hello and thank you for accepting me here. I've been a computer/network tech for 30 years and have always wanted to get an arcade cabinet for home. Well now is the time and after much research here and other places I'm more confused than when I knew nothing.
I was just given two cabinets, all it cost was a $30 trailer rental to move them. Maybe someone here can give me some info on what these were and where to look for parts to restore them or convert them.
Cabinet 1 is a Mortal Kombat II cabinet with a working Turkey Shooting USA in it. (The kids love it).
Cabinet 2 is a Bally Sente SAC1b cabinet, SN#934, that had War Final Assualt in it. The monitor has issues, the roms seem to boot (switched the vegas board to VGA to test),sound works, but the Hard Drive doesn't seem to load, just clicks like any bad ide hard drive.
Both cabinets have the typical wood grain veneer on the sides and both are in excelent condition both inside and out. Very few scuff marks and no gouges anywhere. The coin slots all work.
Ultimately there a few games I'd like to track PCBs down for and be able to do a multi cabinet in some way but I'm not sure where to start with that project.
Anyone have any thoughts? I've read a lot on these forums and other places but I can't seem to come to any conclusions on my own.
