    Here are pics of the video card. GeForce 7600 GS caps look good... apparently works as I get video on a vga monitor

    No way to re-install them... or have to send to NAMCO (SOS repair). If that is the case then I have boards and a case for sale.

    Thanks... did finally get the video to display. Sorry, not familiar with the term VRM?? Guessing the video card does work now that I can see that it failed to load.

    Well the main board definitely has some bulged caps, but I did get it to finally show up on a monitor... see pic. Tried a few times to see if any change. This is all I get.

    Midnight 3 maximum tune

    I salvaged some components from a machine... I know nothing about the boards external of the main cpu. The main cpu powers up. Seems to boot up... but no video..

    Namco Mach Storm / Star Wars Battle Pod

    UPDATE. So I got in touch with Joe at Bandai-Namco America, appears that my pod is not from the N.A region(according to S/N), and therefore the "Dongle" they sold me will not work. Good news is there is still a chance. In the mean time I am playing mame games on it.

    Yeah. The error I get is with or without the dongle.plugged in. It's like it doesn't see it. I am trying all ports 1 by 1 at the moment. I have tested all with a mouse and they all.see that so pretty sure the ports are ok.

    Namco Mach Storm / Star Wars Battle Pod

    So I received the dongle yesterday.. I.plugged it on and fired ip the machine. Still coming up with 19-22 USB Dongle Error(no dongle). I am now at a loss. I did plug into another PC after trying I game, and it is not even recognized. So now I do not know if I got a faulty one, or if it is...

    Namco Mach Storm / Star Wars Battle Pod

    Yeah now I am playing the waiting game. So when you put your dongle in a regular PC you don't get anything, no files appear or it is not even recognized?

    As for the Star Wars running slow. Have you hacked how much ram is in your system. I noticed mine only has 1 stick, but did not look at the value of it. Maybe more ram would help with the speed. Just a thought.

    Namco Mach Storm / Star Wars Battle Pod

    Well that is cool. I will have to get on discord and see how you did it. I ended up ordering a replacement dongle from Bandai-Namco. It should be here next week. It was more than I wanted to spend, but at least it we be working(fingers crossed). I will let you know how it goes when it shows up.
