This post was originally in the general discussions thread, i didn't realise until after i posted that it was in the wrong place.....
Hi guys, I have just picked up a MVS MV1T board,
It was sold as not working "worked previously before being put into storage"
There was minimal battery corrosion but there does appear to be oxidisation on several components in the area where the battery used to be.
My issue is that I am using a Pc psu and have wired a fresh jamma connector with the ground, +5v and +12v (nothing else at this time) I have use the 4 pin PCs molex rather than the large connector on the psu but whenever I connect the jamma connector to the board the psu trips and turns off, I have to disconnect the psu to reset.
I have +5 and +12 on the connector in the correct pins while its disconnected from the board but as soon as I connect it ..... Psu turns off
If I connect +12v only the psu stays on so the issue is with the +5v line shorting somewhere.... Trouble is I'm not sure where to start.
Could anyone help as to where I begin to troubleshoot this board? I can't seem to find much info regarding the mv1t revision board.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
