It's funny how everyone everywhere tells how expensive it is to play Neo Geo on real hardware and I have been firing my 30$ MVS (bios changed) with 161-1 piracart for years now totalling under 100 bucks :D
I know, I know collecting is completely different thing and this is nice looking...
For the pictures from 2019 it seems to be -4 board also:
Perhaps that cap-kit presumes, that those 10uf caps are ceramic and that makes the difference? I don't have these boards anymore and I have no idea about differences of v3 and v4.
Any idea whats wrong with my CPS2 multi? When I cold start it, it runs 30 seconds or so and then freezes. If I then restart it, it usually freezes just straight.
Alien vs. Predator also gives this error instead of just freezing:
I have re-seated a+b boards multiple times and cleaned the...
Well I could not find anything measuring those components so I just took that IC1 video amplifier from the donor board. While this was there on the desk, I also switched C2 capacitor to new (even it was changed while re-capped).
Now it's been running 40minutes with all the colors and...
I measured all three transistors and those big resistors from the neckboard but all were giving me same results. I have that one broken Hantarex Chassis (that was sold "as is" on Ebay) and it has a pretty botched up neckboard (jump wires and such fixes), but I took green RGB transistor from that...
yea it's not the game board, this comes with all the games now. I first thought it was my CPS2 multi since it had this issue first, but now it's all the games.
I will check the neckboard next!
I have Hantarex Polo which @nem recapped and fixed for me on my Tekken cab, and it's been working for years. Recently it has started to have issues with green color. When booted cold, it works for a 5minutes or so and then it start to loose green color.
I have re-seated cables and wiggled...
Thanks, I'll try it first with just one connected and if there is issues I'll add that loop cable. Just noticed that this MeanWell has smaller terminal connections so need to go buy ABIKO pliers and some smaller heads tomorrow.
I am replacing my Tekkens old 90s PSU with new MeanWell and just want to make sure:
FG is that "upside T with two lines under it (earth ground symbol)" ?
GND is COM ?
Other markin is same on both.
Also my MeanWell has just one "COM" mark, so can I just cut the loop wire which goes from FG...
