This is excellent . I’ll be providing whatever machines I get in for repair for helping preservation of single games that are in the wild still taking coin! . Haunted mansion series is something else I’ll be hoping to sort out. What about Darius burst? That is something I’d like myself to so am...

Thanks for the thoughts and advice. always appreciated. I will try another usb lead but these leads are new and i use them for other projects all the time. Only tried the ssf4 games and space invaders so far. Nothing loads, just black screen. I only have an older 60gb ssd drive that will work...

Yep i can do this no worries. I can do it using std dd unix tools or macrium reflect or the tool you mention. no bother Give me a couple of days. A stock version that ignores the dongle would be perfect :)

So a bad jvs board/connection causes a blank screen after loading? I am getting the original taito jvs board from the game sent so maybe that will work better? The jvs boards i tested do work with inputs and are detected though.. Original stickers are: The motherboard was replaced because it...

Thanks for the replies on all my questions. Sorry to ask alot, just wanting to fix this game for my customer as he is an operator so its good to keep games out there in the wild if we can. I have tried 2 different jvs boards but they are both sega ones. Both work as in are detected correctly...

Need some advice, Any specific requirements for the type of monitor and resolution in use? Ie can you run these computers with the multihd on the bench with any old monitor and adapter leads if you only have a vga monitor etc. I just cannot get any game to run here. Super Street Fighter 4 set...

Just to add to this, I just had the same thing. Chasing an issue with "Operating system not found" error. Tried my trusted WD green SSDs (120Gb & 240Gb) but no joy with any of these. They are new ish ones from 2022-2023 ish. Tried again with an old Corsair one from 10 years ago. Worked first...

Have you got it set with dips so it performs the self test at boot?

Both 👍🏻

Cheers :), boards will be available for people to build from scratch, or populated with just the ics to add.

DCS1 or DCS2 or both? I need dcs2 tools for my pinball2000 projects. Where to find the info?

Kind words, always appreciated. 👍🏻🤩

Not only v1 games. Some v2 games will work as I have shown. and I’ve no idea why you say no ensonic info is available. I spent ages writing a clear summary post with ensonic sound info and videos . See here...

Does anyone know if there were schematics made for the Nichibutsu armed formation and similar pcbs during the creation of the core for these? Also whether the pal at 6B on the top board for armed formation (and sky robo) is dumped somewhere. I am in the process of trying to fix a sky robo pcb...

Yeah i agree, i was thinking about the system 11b/c sound boards i think earlier when i was delving into this, where they have everything, yamaha chips, dac and cvsd speech chips. Maybe its 2 of these needed haha. The system 11 sound architecture is complex and annoying to repair as they have 2...
