lol I took one look at those tiny traces on the motherboard and all the solder I globbed on that thing to do the piggy back mod and noped the heck out. Maybe in the next life.
I’ve got a V3 AES cart that rewrite made for me forever ago. Will that work with the soft reset bios? Back then I didn’t have a desoldering station so I piggy backed a Unibios chip onto the old one. Otherwise I’d just burn it and test. If it’ll add soft reset I’ll revisit the motherboard and...
The super gun came with its own power supply and reports 5.2V. The jamma cabinet is using a suzo happ power supply and I’ve tried 5 - 5.25V. Both setups work with other boards.
I do not have another motherboard.
Here’s what the pins look like. I don’t see anything obvious
Yes, I've tested it with three different carts and get the same result on all of them. They were all confirmed working with this motherboard previously.
Motherboard and cartridge were previously working a few weeks ago. Played all the way through KOV2 no problems.
Tried again today and now I’m getting a scrambled screen with the cartridge inserted. I’ve cleaned the connectors on the cartridge and motherboard.
It boots up fine to the test...

Last AES one I saw on eBay sold instantly at $550 + shipping. (well, it was listed and then immediately went into "no longer for sale" so I guess a deal was made outside eBay) Obviously haven't been monitoring AES prices much since I no longer need carts. Should probably get rid of the ones I...
Ah.. I'm looking for AES, but that's good to know. Can I get you to reflow the solder on my chips? Seems like one game works, two get glitchy every time I touch it. ||
