I am getting a 6 slot mother soon with problems. The board was used with a psu that was way too high and it fried the jamma pins that supply power and ground.
I have no idea if it has other problems, but it was apparently being used in a cab when the damaged happened. I can't find a photo at the moment but I will add one.
NOW!! My bright idea, (please don't laugh at me) was to use the MVS to JAMMA adaptor and tap the 5v, 12v and ground from the board and solder to the JAMMA adator directly. Is this something that would work? My worry is that that the damage went all the way from the jamma edge up the trace to the board itself.
The JAMMA edge is black and burnt. Theoretically, would the damage have gone all through the board or would it just be the burnt JAMMA edge damage only? Obviously the JAMMA connector got too hot and caused the burning. I just don't know if the damaged would have stopped there or if it damaged the board too. Hoping some NEO-GEO gods may be able to decipher my rambling and give me an answer. I am only talking theoretical of course
