Gunstar Hero:
Another "classic" back from the dead! Nice job.

I only used quotes on classic because I'm not a big Xenophobe fan.   :-\

Banned.

SirPeale:
I pulled the original PS to see why there wasn't any 12V on the dedicated audio line.

Was pretty easy to figure out; someone intentionally removed a critical component so it wouldn't work.

Guessing so it wouldn't die under load.

Gunstar Hero:
Banned???

Hey now! I'm impressed with the work, just not the game so much. But hey, to each his own, right? Right?

Heh heh...  ;D

SirPeale:
This cab has been sitting in my mom's garage since....well, when was the last post?  :(

I visited her today and wanted to plug it in to let the kids play.

First...the thing is /filthy/.  And all the work I did cleaning the rust off has been undone from sitting in humidity.  :(

It's mysteriously developed a board issue of some kind.  Couldn't tell what, as the monitor wouldn't fire up!  I opened the panel to check it out, and the flyback is arcing to frame.   :banghead:  It was working fine when I parked it.

Good news is I have several replacement flybacks.

Bad news is there's still some kind of board fault.
