if the labels fall off the roms, exposing the windows, they can get corrupted if they're around a bright UV light source for too long. it sounds farfetched but considering how much these boards have been passed around the last 17-18 years who knows.![]()
I was wondering about the UV light and the windows on these chips (now i know once again skeweled by mecha187's vast knowledge).
Anyone happen to know of a place where i could print up said missing labels?
On another note semi on topic, i had a bad u126 on my UMK3 board (it was missing the label if i remember correctly). I tried everything i could to see if it was still good without a reader with no luck. I ended up just ordering a replacement from Steph (hobbyroms.com) and it worked perfectly, he even repro'd the original sticker.
you can use any number of things from like an office supplies store. in the past I've taken those different colored dots and cut them to size to cover windows lol.
don't worry about them getting sticky. some windex or rubbing alcohol and a soft towel or q-tip can get that stuff off easy.
alternatively, you can get fancy and buy the printable sheet labels and label all the chips with their respective #'s too.
sounds like an interesting photoshop project. making "repro" labels.
I'd try it myself, I just don't ever have time at this time of the year.
I would be interested in Repro labels for eproms for the NBA jam.
I Know my NBA Jam had some outside time due to the stuff I found in the old Monitor and the faded sides. Getting New lables would be nice.
