Hi,
I have a Stargate that will restart roughly every 30 seconds if the interface board is plugged into the CPU board. If I don't plug it in, the machine stays up and running fine. When it is hooked up , it actually does function and you can move the ship up, down, etc, but a restart happens before you get play very long.
When I bought this machine, the guy did warn me the interface board was bad. Apparently he had two Stargates and his other one developed this problem. He pulled the good working board from my machine and installed it in his to get it working so he could sell it. I ended up with his "Fixer" Stargate.
Does anyone have any ideas what could be wrong with this interface board? I tried swapping the 6821 PIA on it since I had an extra lying around, but that didn't help.
