Ive read a couple post about some neo boards that not working or having some kind of issues. Should i apply the same trouble shoots to the resetting? It started a couple days ago and now i played for ten minutes and it reset.

Just wondering if reset is symptoms of it going green screen. thanks
 
No, assuming your power is ok (check the 5V at the BOARD) reseting is most likely to be dirty contacts on the cart slot that are getting borderline.

The main cause of the green screen death is track rot from a leaking battery, if yours still has the old battery you should cut it off ASAP, as the tracks rot they work fine until one day when they go open circuit, there is no way back from that without getting it repaired/
 
Clean the slots... clean the carts... check the power supply for split caps.

This is the cause of 99+% of the Neo Geo reboots.
