Converting a dead Galaga
paigeoliver:
Dude, I can tell you how to FOR SURE revive your Galaga and make it stone 100 percent reliable too, AND hardly spend any money.
Carefully pull your existing galaga board and harness, sell them, on ebay. You should get around $125
Buy a new JAMMA harness and power supply from bob roberts and a brand new JAMMA galaga board ($95) from Electronicamuse.
All new guts, total outlay less than $100.
Callindril:
Well, suprisingly enough, I showed the board to a friend of mine who is very into electronics, he took it home, did something to it, brought it back, and voila! its working!!!
He said it was filthy under/in all the socketed chips, and he removed them from the sockets,. cleaned the pins and the sockets and now its wokring like a champ again...
So now I have the working galaga, but still want a mame cab with 2/4 player action...
anyone wanna trade :)
Apollo:
He he you're such a bit*h. Told you it might be an easy fix.

Email me at the address I listed above, and I can get you in touch with my friend. He likes Galaga, so he'll probably hook you up.
