Hey all. So, I finally had some time recently to play with the board I was able to get the sprites to show, but as you can see there are still some vertical lines that show up. FYI I did have a perfect picture briefly without the shells attached until I detached the A and B board to put...
FYI it turns out it was a sticker on the interconnect board. It's been a while since I've had a chance to play around with it. Could installing it the wrong way have messed something up causing the missing foreground sprites? I'm really close to sending you the boards if there isn't any other...
So, I finally had time to mess around with the kit and I've inspected everything on the boards, and I get the same result with no foreground sprites as seen in the pics. When I had loaded the first game 1944 there were garbled graphics and sound, but it had the foreground sprites. So something...
Sound is working fine. I still haven't had a chance to test it out after reassembling everything including the clips between the A and B board. I've read people having issues with glitches until everything was put back in place. IDC connector pins seemed to be clean prior to install but I will...
I got it working! It turns out the "RU" printing on the interconnect was wrong. The manual shows that the letters should have been on the top left corner. I had found a schematic from darksoft on the interconnect pinout and noticed there were traces missing on the left side. As you can see, with...
Gotcha. I will send pics of the install and will keep you posted on what happens once I reinstall the original game as soon as I bring my solder station back home (should be by Sunday). Thank you and everyone else for the troubleshooting help!
I checked continuity on the key writing connector and everything checked out. I will check the continuity with the wire attached from the CE board to the b board. By reinstalling the original game do you mean reinstalling the battery, flashing the keys and reinstalling the rom chips? Would...
I will purchase a new SD card to try out. Could you send me a link for a card to purchase that you know works? I just find it odd that it loaded the first time. I have placed the b board with just the bottom of the case on to the a board. I have not tried installing it bare. The screen is black...
So I just received my darksoft CPS2 CE kit a few days ago and I've had a problem with a blank screen after flashing my first game, 1944. So, I will try to be as detailed on what I've done and tried. I had a functional A board and Marvel vs Street Fighter B board revision 7 with the G PAL chip...
