    Namco System ES3 Teardown and some basic info

    I know its been asked a few times and seems to go un-answered but do we know the BIOS password for this system? I've got a Time Crisis 5 that has a timing problem on the second player (com port2). I'd like to get into the BIOS to see if COM1 and COM2 are set to the same speed.

    Taito Type X2 Upgrades and Mods

    thanks for the information all! I managed to find a workaround that seems to have done the trick. I bought a 4 in 1 out HDMI processor that allows me to move the input that the games computer is on to the far left of the screen and fit about 60% of the screen? See attached pic, I put the...

    Taito Type X2 Upgrades and Mods

    I think the game does run at 800x600 natively. That or 640x480 since the game came with what looks like a D9200 or D9400 (both monitors were missing when I got to the games). There are three outputs. DVI, VGA and that little round connector for composite video. I've tried the VGA and DVI...

    Namco NA1/NA2 Repair Tips

    It didnt work. I suppose I should have taken the time to map out the pins on the one I bought vs the ones on the board though.

    Namco NA1/NA2 Repair Tips

    Hey guys. I'm working on one of these boards right now. It initially wouldn't boot but changing that 2.2 mf cap fixed that. Then I had no sound so I figured I'd recap the audio section of the board. That "kinda' fixed it. I have sound now but only in one VERY SMALL spot on the pot. :( Yeah, the...

    [Taito Type X2] Flashing a GeForce 7900 with Elsa 979 BIOS

    Some good information here. I've got a Dariusburst CPU on my bench with what I think may be a bad video card. Shortly after the computers passes its POST I get a BSOD. If I put another card in the computer (a 9500GT) it will get to the windows desktop but the game will not start. Didnt think it...
