I have a few Taito units for sale or trade, to clear out some of this stuff

2x TTX2 with the Fast IO Dmac cards installed
1x TTX3 Puzzle & Dragons
1x TTX3 Figureheads (powers on but does not post, seems like bad motherboard or gpu)
1x TTX3 Gusnlinger 3
1x TTX4 Magicians Dead - Might keep this one as it could be a possible upgrade route to SF5

If interested let me know

TTX2s

Open to all offers guys, cash or trade, let me know what you got.
 
Is the Fast IO Dmac the kind of ethernet card with 2 RJ45 ?
If yes, let me know if you think you could sell only this card.

Yes. I want to try to sell the unit, but if there are not takers Ill split it. PM me about it.
 
i have a USF4 TTX3 unit with a defective GPU, at least it keeps a black screen.
Do you know if I can pop in any off the shelf GTX660 or do I need a special Bios like with the Elsa TTX2 cards?

I dont think these have special Bios on them, you should be able to pop in a regular GTX660 since the nvidia drivers installed should support it. Im gonna install a 760 I have somewhere and see if it works.
I was gonna try a 960, but seems too much of a leap most likely for the drivers already installed. I am no OS expert, but if there is a way to update the graphics drivers on these systems I would love to hear it.

Update the driver in the system. It is just standart Win7 Embedded.
There is no SecureBoot or any other stuff like that.
Onboard TPM is also unused, at least in Windows.

Boot your X3
Wait for Windows to load
Unplug bottom connector from FastIO card, that would prevent FastIO from restarting the system
Now replug SATA cable from the drive to your computer or USB-SATA converter. Do not touch drive's power.
You now got normal disk with NTFS partitions
Take some nice utility (I use Q-Dir, you may use anything else), rename and place it as C:\Windows\System32\taskmgr.exe
Unmount and "eject" the drive from your PC, so NTFS would be marked as "clean", otherwise your X3 would run chkdsk every boot.
Powerdown X3.
Reconnect the drive to X3, reconnect FastIO bottom cable
Connect USB keyboard and mouse
Proceed with normal boot
Wait for Windows to load
Press Shift+Ctrl+Esc
Now you have your file manager running
Disconnect FastIO bottom cable
You may now connect USB flash drive with useful software
Use any external task manager from your USB stick (I use Process Explorer) to kill EXE process with cryptic name, that TDEGBoot spawns)
If you won't kill it - it would reboot Windows after sometime. Don't touch TDEGBoot.
Like here:

Zoom in

Now proceed with whatever you want, like video driver installation.

Above process works fine on my Lord of Vermilion IV machines.
 
@Derick2k My understanding is SF5 is upgrade-only kit for Magician's Dead, so you may want to keep that!

GLWS.
 
would already be happy if we get ultra sf4 for ttx2. nice collection by the way.
 
You already have a USF4 TTX3, don't you?

You lost me here. What are you putting in place of taskmgr.exe? Just a file explorer?
Click to expand...
Yes, sir!
Inplace, yes, because originally taskmgr.exe is not shipped with this W7 Embedded, but still it would be invoked on Alt+Ctrl+Esc keyboard shortcut.
I specifically use Q-Dir, because it has an option to gain system priviledges for your file operations.
