Hi Everyone,
My Stargate has started throwing adjustment failure errors every time I start it up. If I then open the front door and start it, the settings clear and I can advance it to the normal start screen, but the high score table is all garbled. At this point it will make the coin sound if I put a credit in, but the credit count doesn't go up. If I press advance and cycle through the self test, I get a CMOS write protect error.
The power supply is the original, but I've replaced all the capacitors and connectors. I'm getting 5.05v on the CPU board.
Based on this, do you think replacing the CMOS chip is the best next step? Just want to get some expert feedback before I start replacing stuff...
The worst part is my high score is now gone!!!
Self test error...
