Evil night arcade

 evil night hardware error
I just bought the machine and everything runs but it gets an hardware error after ck11 pass, I change the cd-rom but that was not the problem, any help would be really appreciate.

[fvargasfrank]

Anyone? Or any place that or person that would fix it or make it into a shooting mame if it's not to much trouble ?

Sorry I can't help with the problem, it's way, way beyond my knowledge . Just wanted to say it sounds like u got 1 bigass serious cab! I wasn't familiar with it, so I googled it and looked at some pics--Wow! Let us know how it turns out, &/or, better yet, post some pics.

Thank you for that, that's a start. I read somewhere that I might need a patch cd of the game to make it work something relevant to EPROM or something like that.i have the original cd but I don't know we're to get the patch cd or make one.

to be honest, I have no idea what is going on. But i looked into your issue and found this Patcher that from what I gather has done the job in the past.....

"The battery inside the sub-board Timekeeper/RTC SRAM is probably dead.

The game checks the contents of the EEPROM against the SRAM and throws an error if they mismatch. It's a copy-protection of sorts and you can't re-initialise either :/"

Ha, that is the page I pulled the quote from. Not sure why I didn't post the link to it. More searching pulled the Patcher for games like this.

I can buy the Part, but i have no idea how to install it

If you can't find a local electronics/PCB repair shop, maybe you can post a thread like this old one in Buy/Sell/Trade.
