I reloaded software and rebooted it and now its stuck on a boot screen saying resetting CMOS. So I powered it off and rebooted it and went into bios and reset cmos and rebooted it again and I'm still stuck at resetting cmos. In ready to scrap this machine lol

You probably need a new battery on the motherboard. Also, its detecting hardware changes so it will do a reboot loop a few times, unless it does it more then 10 times then there might be something else wrong. I feel your pain. I constantly rip my hair out trying to troubleshoot and repair these dinosaurs. :banghead:

The motherboard battery is new. The resetting cmos is gone now its back to invalid key for this version. Im so far into these machines almost all of it a loss but you live and you learn. I guess ill buy a hacked drive and key and try that. It doesn't make sense to buy just a key if they are all gonna die sometime soon. Man I hate this but what can I do? If I don't invest in a hacked drive then im really losing on the deal. That Radion is way to big to use on my desk as a paper weight. I think to recoup some of my loss ill turn the 2 stripped out MAXX uprights into touch screen juke boxes. Just a thought. They both have their monitors touchscreen and touch screen controllers they are just missing everything else

Where are you located? If you want to give up on them, i might take them off your hands. Maybe work out a deal for a trade.

Im located in New Orleans but I'm not giving up. I won't take a loss and I have never met a machine I can fix. I own alot of arcade and I service them all with no problem but megatouch is a whole diffrent beast. Im just frustrated is all. You wouldn't happen to know who sells reasonably priced key of death hacked drives with keys?
I appreciate all your help. May be willing to trade in the future.
