Hi
Well, I'm still working on the Spy Hunter. It seems like everything that could go wrong has gone wrong!
Here is my issue:
Most times I start up the machine, the green light on the cheap squeak board flashes a few times, and then goes out. After this the game works perfectly, with the Peter Gunn theme playing at all the right times.
SOME times, however, when I power up, the LED does not flash at all, and the Peter Gunn theme then never plays. If I power cycle the game, it works (the light flashes a few times, goes out, then everything works ok).
Sigh...
Anyone know what would cause this problem? Is it possible something needs to "charge up" and is doing so when I power the machine up the first time when it doesn't work, and is then charged up the next time I power the machine on?
Could it be a power issue? I don't know how it could be since it always works the second time...but I checked the +12 at the power board, it is around 12.2. I'm not sure where to check the voltage on the cheap squeak.
thanks!
