Had a quick play over lunch, took a few tries to get it right (I had to factory reset from the service menu to get the free play option to appear) but besides that it all appears to work well! Thanks a lot for your hard work Pythagoras, I'll transfer you a little thank you now :) Looking forward...
That sounds awesome! My programmer is in storage as we prepare to move house but dead keen to get this up and running on a board. In the meantime I'll have a play in MAME and drop a thank you to your paypal all goes well :)
I paid 26,000yen for mine off YAJ in July 2022. Painfully looking up this info I found an email from RKLOK.com from 2014 with these prices 👀 Wild how prices have changed.
Up to you but I've ordered some strips to New Zealand and maybe you could pay the extra postage to join my parcel? I'd still have to send them to you locally but probably can save coin this way.
Might be worth asking on 'NZ Pinball & Arcade - Buy, Sell & Exchange' facebook group if trying another motherboard is a worthwhile avenue. Otherwise, you could try Darren's Lab
Hey all
I'm looking to replace D780C CPU in a board I have as part of diagnosing a fault - except I don't have another known working one sitting around. Looking around online, it's very easy to buy a D780C-1 & D780C-2 CPU which have a higher clock speed, but I can't see a reasonably priced D780C...
Curious how you came to that conclusion - not saying you're wrong because I don't know but we certainly had a more than few of them over here in NZ and AU.
When I owned one, I saw more for sale in the NZ market than I did in the Japanese one where I was hoping to find parts.
