Issues with Naomi 2 Games

[Scarletspeedstr]

I’ve been running a NetBoot setup on my Naomi 2 for a little over a year now. Last night when trying to load up Virtua Fighter 4 FT, the Naomi loading screen began flashing a checkerboard pattern and was animated in slow motion. The game eventually did load, but the checkerboard flashing continued.

Further testing showed that this now happens with any Naomi 2 game I try to load. Any game from the 1 library or Atomiswave is perfectly fine, both loading and actual game play.

I’m going to pull it today to take a look, as I replaced fans about 3 months ago. Any other ideas are appreciated.

Sounds like gpu or cpu issue. Fans might not do it. Not sure if these are BGAd or what... Ken at irepairaega might be your best bet tbh.

Yep. It is a common fault. Ken will be able to help you. Just don't power it on again.
