Williams problems with switcher saving high scores/settings - FIX

If you're having these problems with Joust, Defender, etc. using a switching power supply, try what I did.

I got the NVRAM module from Dale (delroy666) and it's awesome! Works perfectly. It even has a cool feature where you can have 2 completely independent configurations via a jumper on the little host board for the chip.

Couldn't be happier with this product and Dale is a very cool guy! -Wes
 
Which specific problem? My Defender has a switcher and the highs will usually have one or two that get screwy, like 5th place will be 2550 or something while the ones above and below that are much higher, is that what you mean? Usually when that happens I just keep playing it until the leaderboard has all correct scores again, but it would be nice for that not to happen. I've read that there's a fix like what you describe for most Williams games but not necessarily for Defender, will this fix the issue I'm having?
 
I'd like to hear more about this as well. I'm running a rebuilt linear on mine, but would like to read about other setups. I'm slowly trying to bulletproof my Defender... Have a new lithium battery for backup and just ordered 4164 RAM (still have to order connectors, I'm going to make a harness rather than mod individual chips).
