finally got a hold of a DDK pcb, and I am unable to "switch" between games by pressing the 1&2p buttons at the same time. When I do it, it goes to a black screen and I hear a "jump" sound but it resets back to the DK if I am playing DK. The start up screen shows everything is OK, and at the moment the only way to switch between games it to do so at the start up screen every time I turn it on. The only thing I can think of at this point (when I got it, the HSSK was missing a chip that I was able to get from Scott Brasington[thanks again] and I have done quite a bit of trouble shooting up until now) is the DIP SETTINGS on the pcb. Right now it is on all off and the last one on.

Does anyone have a DDK that can let me know what their DIPS are set to? I'm not sure if it even affects the settings on the game (with how it has the mods now) but I at least want to give that a shot.
 
I don't have Double DK, but I do have a DK/D2K braze kit. To switch games with that, you press p1 and p2 together then press the jump button. I believe it has to be in freeplay, if not you can only change in the menu. The onscreen menu overrides the dipswitch settings on the pcb.

Is it set to freeplay? - Barry
 
It is currently set to free play, I'll try taking that option off tomorrow morning and see if that does the trick
 
crap, totally forgot about this post...it was set on free play, I switched it, still no luck. I'll push both buttons, you can hear the pounding noise and the screen goes black for a second, then if I was playing DK, it goes back to DK.

While pushing both P1, P2 buttons did you push the jump button?
 
yeah, I tried that as well ( I also have the D2K ) no luck. Anyone else that has DDK, when you press both the 1P and 2P buttons, does go to a screen like D2K telling you to press jump to switch between games?
