My AES with a Phantom1 resets itself sometimes and only on 2 MVS games... My Last Blade resets only when I throw someone with Kaede. The other game is 3 count bout, that seems to reset randomly. It is not the carts since my other AES system plays them fine. Anyone know what this could be??? It just resets instantly like it grounds out! What the?

I have the same problem with my 3 Count Bout cartridge, gt6plus. I believe its an incompatibility problem with the Phantom-1.

I have the same problem but mine seems to be on Cyber Lip MVS. The game will randomly reboot. It does make sense that it is a compatibility problem because I have yet to duplicate the problem. Come to think about it, I do have a 3 Count Bout for MVS. I should try it and see if I get the same result.

WIll let you know

Possibly a bad connection with a pin on the cart... Maybe it's dirty?

Ok further inspection of the system has revealed the following... There is a series of pins going vertical from top to bottom on the slots that give me crackling noises through my speakers when I individually touch them with a screw driver. It is just these 4 pins that do it. And it does it even with the AC plug out.. Is this a problem?

Another strange thing I notice is that my AES that is acting up is an older one 27,000. It has a ground that runs from the circut board to the Metal sheild on the top piece of the casing. My other AES doesn't have this 72,000. Is this just a normal revision that was done?

Thanks
