No. Those were replaced by parts I bought from arcadecomponents.com (Channelmaniac's store) back in 2018 (the system wouldn't boot at all before I did that). The pic is a little blurry and there's some glare coming from a window but I assure you none of those pins are bridged. Also...

It took longer than I expected to get back to this but the whole plague lockdown situation finally got me some spare time. I took some readings around the battery (brand new battery installed and this is what I found. These were measured with the positive probe on the positive battery terminal...

I have a 4-slot that (mostly) miraculously survived being underwater a couple days during a flood. I had to replace the backup ram to get it to boot and play again but it now does that quite nicely. Unfortunately, it now kills the battery within a day or so of powering off the cabinet. When I...

I have an Mv-4f that I recently repaired so that it would pass the backup ram test (replaced both chips). It boots and plays fine now, and saves the calendar info, but soft dips (most notably the cabinet settings) aren't being persisted. The board has a unibios 3.0 in it and the backup battery...

I'm working on a JAMMA Genesis and since the plan is to hook it up to my MVS cabinet, it sure would be a shame to let that sweet, sweet stereo audio go to waste. I'm planning to use one of those cheap PAM 8610 reference boards as the amp, and like most stereo amps, the speakers come out with...

Back in 2016 my house got 3ish feet of water in it and among the victims was my beloved MVS cabinet. I'm finally in a position to start cleaning it up and it's going surprisingly smoothly! Even though the monitor got water half way up it, no problems there. Out of an abundance of caution, I...

I know it's been a long-ass time since I posted here but I have these codes and know some of you are in the UK. Since I'd rather give them to Neo members than some other random selection of jackasses on the net, I'm offering them here. They came with my Blu-Ray set but since it's UK region, I...

My 4-slot sat unused (even disconnected) for several months and when I went to play it today, it was doing this: It does that whether there are carts in it or not. Where do I start with troubleshooting?

SOLD! Edit: I'm up for $400 if you don't want the games and controllers. I REALLY don't want to sell this but I need a new AV receiver more than I need my CMVS. This was built with an Omega kit. It is wired for stereo and a Neobiosmasta and licensed Universe Bios 3.1 are included...

I just picked up a cheapish PVM-1953MD off of eBay to use rotated. The shipping was more than the monitor so it's not really worth trying to send it back for this IMO. Hopefully I can repair it. It ran for a minute or so and looked fantastic, but then the picture got a little wobbly and it...

I am thinking of picking up an RGB monitor to use vertically since decent vertical cabs are kind of hard to come by around here. I already have a decent supergun for breaking out the controls and power but it has an old JROK encoder in it. It works great for NTSC but of course if I have an RGB...

I got some time to look at this again ... I swear I'll get it working eventually. Here's the original thread: http://www.neo-geo.com/forums/showthread.php?140235-Final-Fight-PCB-graphics-problems I've done some more testing since then. I've ruled out any of the roms and both the A and B...

A couple of weeks ago, I decided I wanted a vertical cab to put my Twin Eagle board in. After a little digging on eBay, I found this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=390345707025 The monitor is on in those pics. It's really dim. I talked to the guy a little and he...

I'm spinning a DnB set at Groundwerk tomorrow night. Stuff like this: http://soundcloud.com/0x15e/thomas-melvin-htgt-test-mix and http://soundcloud.com/0x15e/thomas-melvin-the-fever-the-focus-autumn-2010-promo The party is from 9p to 4am. It's going to be NUTS. Details here...

A friend of mine just went through a bunch of BS and long story short, either his roommates or ex-GF stole his MVS-U4 while he was out of the house. As it was configured when it left, it had a 4-slot, MV-IC (no headphone wires, though), Samurai Shodown 2, Magical Drop 2, Magician Lord, and...
