Hi, I'm considering converting my 4 slot cabinet into a 2 slot, and I was wondering if anyone with access to a 2 slot motherboard can try an experement for me, before I invest the money. Can someone try booting a 2 slot board with Rage of the Dragons and Double Dragon MVS carts loaded, and play out for a bit, select between the games, just make sure they get along ok, and not killing each other's sound or distoring graphics, alternating slots if possible? I really want a cab that contains both of these games and they don't seem to get along very well right now on my 4 slot. Thanks!

I'll see if I can try tomorrow ..My 2 slot board with Rage of the Dragons and Double Dragon MVS carts loaded, and play out for a bit, select between the games, just make sure they get along ok, and not killing each other's sound or distoring graphics, alternating slots if possible?

I have two slots..that I can try it in..But honestly,I think it may be per board or carts that'll cause the issue.
What I mean is..My carts might work with my mobos..But they might not with one you might get-vice versa..

If the carts work in my mobos..That's not a guarantee that the carts you get/have will work in the mobo you get
IMO if they don't work together right in a four slot they shouldn't in a 2 sot either

I'll try them in a 4 slot too..just to make sure they don't work in it...or do..

Thanks very much! If you could let me know before 11:45 PST that would be great, because there is an auction closing for a nice looing 2 slot mobo :). Oh, also, I'm on my 3rd double dragon cart with the same board and rage of the dragons cart, and I'm getting the same "sound killing" issue regardless of what DD cart is used...

I tried the carts in both my two slots..Double Dragon knocks out Rage of the Dragons sound if you demo to it or select to it..
I switched the carts around and tried it several times and still the same thing..

It's the Double Dragon..I have a note with the cart that it won't work with other carts in my 4 slots so I didn't even try.

Double Dragon doen't work well with other games,one reason why I never play it..
I'm going to chuck that sucker up on the bay one of these days..

2 slot.
Rage of the Dragons I tried with Goal,Goal Goal and,it runs fine ..it's running fine right now with Samurai Shodown II..It's been on for awhile now..I'm actually going to leave those two games in the cab.

Mine does the same thing... I'd really love to find a fix for this but I think the double dragon is going to need it's own cab, then I just have to find that large black marquee....Thanks very much for the help, at least I avoided the cost of buying an extra motherboard
