Maybe im mistaken but I think I remember reading that the X was the eXport version and it ran Windows unlike the A and B versions which ran Linux.

That makes sense, thank you for the info. I was looking further into it and it appears early Nu games were based on Windows 8 embedded whereas later games are on Windows 10 IoT. I think its pretty cool because ive never seen an arcade pc bridge multiple os generations before.

Is that true for the ones being sold on fleabay as "Unlocked Final" as well? Did these recieve some type of offline patch when online services were terminated, or is this some kind of shady cracked version? If its something legit I wonder if it would be possible to apply it to the donor? I would...

The Nu uses a i3-3220 SR0RG (L1 Stepping) cpu.

Wasn't winteriscoming working on card reader emulation scripts for older titles? His expertise might be relevant here. Maybe he can collaborate with darksoft and make some kind of card reader emulator hardware? It would be really cool to just insert a usb memory stick into a custom pcb board...

A usb kvm switch comes to mind but that would only be useful for switching between multiple io boards on a single cab (in theory) not sure if that would even work. I guess it would come down to if the JVS standard supports hot plugging.

It was just an atx soft power switch from an old pc case, nothing special. Something like this You can also test the video card, memory, and even cpu in a desktop computer motherboard if you have one that is compatible to help narrow down the issue provided you still have socket 775 junk pcs...

You can use a regular GPU for troubleshooting issues with post. The bios splash screen will display on a third party card. You will however have to use an authentic gpu to run the game. If I am not mistaken the ringedge runs american megatrends bios and 4 beep codes could indeed indicate an...

Second vote for seasonic, never had an issue with them. I don't like to use older power supplies with my retro stuff unless they have been completely serviced and recapped and for most computer psus it simply isn't worth the time and effort if a reasonably priced quality replacement solution can...

This looks really cool, If it works with ringedge I take it type 3 i/o is supported? Is this going to be exclusively for fighting games or will driving games also be supported?

When I first got mine assembled it had the same issue you are describing. What I did was connect a pc power switch to the front panel and power cycle it a couple of times using the switch which did the trick. (it will auto clear the corrupt cmos settings after a couple of failed posts like any...

BestBuy has them as well that is where I got mine. (got the last one on the shelf a few months ago)

I picked up a used gaming laptop a few years back that I had wanted since it was new but couldn't justify the price. The guy sent it to me in an oversized box with no packaging at all except for a towel. What is even crazier is it arrived on my doorstep without any damage, not even so much as a...

That really stinks. At least the region change procedure is easier then the ringedge so it shouldn't matter too much which motherboard you buy. Help Changing Lindbergh Region

Best I can figure out the motherboard should be the same but a lot of the peripherals are different. You will need to reuse your CF card, video card, cpu, and ram since all of these things varied depending on color. If you give it a try let us know how it goes for future reference. Lindbergh is...
