Interested! I currently have Golden Axe and Juouki PCBs. Will it work on either one?

Well I’m stuck. Switched the CLOCK and DATA wires back but still a white screen. My multimeter probes are pretty sharp, but testing connectivity with individual FPGA pins is beyond my skill level. At this point I just want to pay to ship the whole thing to someone for repair... By the way, my recently purchased LCD display from HighScoreSaves doesn’t fit in the CPS2 multi housing from Bit District! Does anyone know if this is a temporary issue or if the LCDs have changed permanently? Thanks agai…

Thank you! After trying the multimeter, I tried switching (what I think are) the CLOCK and DATA wires so that DATA goes to CN9 #2 and CLOCK goes to CN9 #4. Now I get a white screen after a few seconds instead of a black screen. I’m not exactly sure which pins you mean by FPGA #1 and #2. arcade-projects.com/forums/ind…d7ce7a020dabad11537ecec13

Thank you! I tried reversing the connector (it should be easier to see the connections in the below photo). Also tried re-shorting exc5 just in case. Still black screen — does this provide a better visual? Thanks for the help!arcade-projects.com/forums/ind…d7ce7a020dabad11537ecec13arcade-projects.com/forums/ind…d7ce7a020dabad11537ecec13

Thank you for the detailed instructions! I removed the battery and shorted exc5 (at least I think I did after pressing a screwdriver against the posts on the bottom and top capacitor of the board) but still black screen. Sorry for the poor photos- the ribbon wires are actually swapped on the connector as shown: arcade-projects.com/forums/ind…d7ce7a020dabad11537ecec13arcade-projects.com/forums/ind…d7ce7a020dabad11537ecec13arcade-projects.com/forums/ind…d7ce7a020dabad11537ecec13

I used a live (not suicided) type 7 Giga Wing B board PCB and carefully removed & preserved the ROM chips, assembled all boards, and soldered the 4 wires. Upon rewrite the LCD reads “Have Fun!” but I get a black screen. The board still has the original battery installed (see pics). Does the board have to be dead or am I doing something else wrong?

Updates: - audio noise was unrelated to positioning of the data cable. After firmly re-mounting the Darksoft PCB on the F3 motherboard this has been resolved. - missing Zone D background images have been resolved via patches (thanks!) - graphics glitches in specific scenes & areas of the screen continue (see photos below). Doesn’t affect the entire screen, only specific graphic areas (see moon below).

Yes, I've tested the (now region-free) EU motherboard with an original Bubble Symphony cart which works fine. The tearing issue seems to arise in scenes like the beginning of Gekirindan and Darius Gaiden Extra where extra textures are being used for special effects, so I'm not sure if these games are doing something that Bubble Symphony doesn't.... I was able to address the audio corruption (for now) by placing the ribbon connecting the multi board to the PCB outside the chassis instead of tucki…

Sorry, here's the image: I've downloaded the fixes for Zone D background and will apply them tonight to see if it resolves the issue...

No, unfortunately it affects all zones in the game as well as the intro. I’m also seeing similar artifacts in Gekirindan and other games, as well as intermittent audio corruption...

Everything works on my new Darksoft Taito F3 multi except for an annoying intermittent graphics issue that only seems to occur in certain scenes (see photo from Darius Gaiden Extra). I’ve tried reseating the board and multiple cabinets. Any thoughts?

I would also like two 128MB Simms, and am ready to PayPal whenever. Thanks!
