Post by: palo1 on December 13, 2018, 08:47:20 pm
Hi There
I have just purchased a JVL eclipse game- I touch 8 chip
It played fine for a day now I receive an error message and the machine restarts
Please see screenshot
Any help would be much appreciated

Looks like the cf card data is corrupt. Would suggest a reinstall or reimaging the card

Thanks for your reply

Sorry a newbie

The cf card is connected to the motherboard and has all the game files/data. Google for a picture. Depending upon the motherboard you have, it might be on top or bottom of the board. If you can remove it, I'll send you an image you can write to it. Otherwise, you'll need to hook up a cdrom drive and reinstall the software

Thank you so much for your time in responding
Yes I now know that the compact flash card is somewhere on the Board.
I am going to take it apart today and try to locate it
I will also look for a way to rewrite that Cf card
Yes at some point will need new image
Thanks again, I will update my post as time goes on
I love these games, I hope this will allow me more playing time and less down time

Update

I turned off erotic and now the original message that I got yesterday is back on

Power saving mode on  dsub

This causes the machine to turn off

The dsub message has been discussed over and over on these forums. It means the monitor is functioning properly but not receiving a signal from the motherboard. Usually bad motherboard or memory are culprits. If you just bought this yesterday, I'd say take it back
