First time posting, and this is my first cab, so I'm really bummed when my HDD flat out died 2 weeks after bringing it home.
I'm set on converting to CF in the very near future, but I have a couple of 10GB HDDs around, so I figured I'd image over the MAME nbanfl.chd onto one and swap it out for the defective drive. No such luck. I don't even get to the boot loader screen.
I have read up on the pic and rom chip issues, but haven't found exactly what version MAME will work with. Also, I'm using the guide and have successfully written a drive using this URL: http://www.revisionx.com/kiproject/chdman.html
To up the difficulty, I didn't create an image of the drive that came with the cabinet before it failed and the slot where the game/expansion chip goes is pretty much blank. Excuse the pictures, but I took a few quick ones in hopes someone could identify what I need.
When connected and powering up, the LED shows 2 for a few seconds and then quickly cycles numbers 4, 5, d, 8 (sic) and then turns off and back to 2 again.
Any ideas?
