Do you have another Motherboard to test, preferably one with 1 slot only?

Could somebody eventually port the latest Neo Geo Monitor Test Patterns software to the Darksoft Multi, please?

If you're after a 1-slot, I highly recommend the MV-1FZ.

Agree on that. MV-1FZS works very well too. The problem is that these PCBs are getting old and caps start failing, traces and solder too, so the shorter the PCB, the better for the traces and power loss. Checking the caps is a good idea.

Hello, I finally find a MV1FZ board in very good condition. Battery is OK.
Looking at the glue on the caps, they might be originals ones.

Voltage was check on the convenient testing pad : 5,11V.
I've played, everyday, one run until the end of the second level. So far, ten days of playing.
Last run, sound completely drop at leval 1 boss fight.
On some run, one channel on the music drop.
Overall it's better but not perfect.

What do you think ?
What could I doo ?

 

[Darksoft]

you need to measure on the cartridge slot not on the Jamma connector.

Where is the music drop happening? Same game?
