Playing my multi williams yesterday and screen went black any idea.

I have had the multi kit in for about 2 years and its allways worked fine.Now its a black sceen the just flashes a - sighn and makes a light bump bump sound when the - flashes.Has anyone ever had this problem and know how to fix it.Its the Clay Cowgil version.If I cant fix it I plan to just put it back to Robotron....Thanks....Dave

Completely different hardware, but this sounds exactly what happened when I had a bad DK JR board. Turned out to be a bad RAM in my case. It's probably a coincidence but the symptoms are dead on.
 
I havnt even checked it out yet but ram does go bad frequently on williams boards since there is a shitload of them.Yah thats true it may not be the multi kit at all. I wonder if it is easiest to put it back to Robotron see if it has a bad ram and then reinstall the kit. I dont know if the kit has a diagnostic or if the robotron pcb will still troubleshoot and give the bad ram number with the kit installed....Hmmmmm
