What would cause a Jrok Mylstar board to lose settings over night

My Qbert cabinet has the Jrok Mylstar board and I noticed it took all settings back to default as well as all my high scores over night. Any idea what could have caused this?

One thing that causes loss of high-scores ( specifically in Q*Bert ) is exiting back to the game menu, or powering off, when it's asking for high-score entry.

It's and bug in the original gamecode that corrupts the highscore table as the score checksum isn't corrected until after the initials are entered.

I didn't realize Jrok was on here.

Thanks for your response, that definitely could have been the cause of the reset. Thank you for your response.

It's on the to-do list, a patch for the original code that can be turned on or off in the board setup menu.

That would be great, but now that I know what not to do, I can avoid it. So no rush.

Thanks Jrok and thanks for your awesome products.
 
Thanks for answering this!

I too am having the problem, but at least now I know how to prevent it!

I've definitely powered down the machine in frustration after a terrible game. I'll be sure to enter my initials regardless now.
