So I'm not a 246/256 expert, I have 2(3) one 246 Ridge Racer 5 I think, and the rest are 256's that can be switched to 246 or 256, so in principal they're PS2's and the entire program runs off the Memory Card, and then it loads media, textures, sounds etc.. off the CD/DVD Rom. When you turn it...

Yes I followed the instructions... but like I said that GFX card didn't want to post on any older MB that didn't have it's on-board graphics card, and then when I tried to install the drivers it reported a hardware failure, it's running in my son's newer PC now, without issue, so I may have...

Yeah I found out the 3060 needed a UEFI Bios to function as all non UEFI MB's didn't work with it, which is a first for me, there's typically a legacy mode where it shows some low res stuff especially for the bios.... so a EVGA 3060 may not work for this setup and 1060 may be as high as you can...

Sure that would work if I could see the screen, the PC, or any PC I've tried that card on doesn't Post (No Bios) during boot with that card...

Correction the 3060 doesn't work in any PC I have, so I have to see if I can RMA the card, or if it's a bios issue, as the fans turn, and it seems to respond, but won't post through the card... on any MB I have,,,,

Correction. the 3060 I purchased didn't work with other PC's either *(Tested today just to verify card was OK), so I think it's an issue with the card, I've also been looking at the forums, there are some reports about how certain UEFI settings need to be set, or updated, so it's not likely an...

Yes, worked first time.

I just tried a EVGA 3060 and it doesn't post even with new bios.

So I'll go through my experience for others to follow... Flash went without a hitch, as instructions state, backed up bios. I did it in two places, on the flash, and locally on the HDD, I figured if one didn't save properly or I couldn't get back into the machine, and I had to re-flash the chip...

If Karma is a thing, once I get all the games I want for 246 in physical disk form, a new one will arrive...

The Memory Card can't/doesn't fit into the PS2 Memory Slot of the 2X6... The screen makes it too fat... :/

From what I've been reading they're 2 piezoelectric sensors per side, so 4 in total, that create a voltage due to how crystals when struck or vibrate give off a voltage that the "board" or whatever the micro-controller is reading, then I would imagine it has a threshold, and it then toggles the...

So I ordered one of these which reads as USB, which will work fine for almost all Taiko No Tatsujin Games. https://taiko.ac/products/zhongtaiko Except for Namco 246 / 256 games.... I got a hold of a "Drum and Fun 11" for 246, so now I'm wondering if the generic USB to JVS adapters floating...

Got some glass today, and put the marquee up, I need to make another CP, before I put the "New Challengers Vinyl" overlay on there, as I'd like to make several CP's for different games that can be swapped in and out... Now I don't know what happened to this cab before, the marquee was removed...

Guncon 2 should work without sensors, it does for MiSter, with an adapter for sync, but there you have to turn on sync on green, and then plug into the green video signal with the yellow splitter, I don't know this but since Sync sits on a separate pin, you could possibly make a RCA adapter that...
