Title: Die hard not booting Post by: darkcat1 on January 24, 2015, 07:43:56 am I picked up this die hard arcade back in June. It worked ok but randomly the board won't boot....I hope it's not the wiring...but I think it's the STV Jamma board
I know nothing about fixing eletronics Title: Re: Die hard not booting Post by: yocke on January 24, 2015, 07:57:16 am Where do it freeze?, or what do you see as your last screen? (Picture?) Have you try test mode to see that the cassette/cart is recognized by the system. ;) Title: Re: Die hard not booting Post by: iankellogg on January 24, 2015, 08:39:37 am Give it a good once over and pull the edge connector off, put it back on. maybe push down on the socketed chips.

I had someone interested in buying the thing last night that I need to call back...it's just too huge and I want something smaller instead Title: Re: Die hard not booting Post by: iankellogg on January 24, 2015, 04:03:19 pm It's possible the power supply died. Check voltages.

Don't have a multimeter but I do have a cheap jamma board that I don't care about...

Title: Re: Die hard not booting Post by: DarkStar on January 31, 2015, 10:29:56 pm It's possible the power supply died. Check voltages. My favorite troubleshooting saying is "think ASAP," Always Start At Power. You have 120v AC coming into your cabinet. From there, it will split and go to your monitor and the power supply. At the power supply, you'll have 120v AC and probably 12v DC and +5v DC and -5v DC (hopefully it is marked somewhere). Do you have any game audio coming from your speaker (aka, game playing "blind")? If that is the case, your power supply is probably fine and you should move your troubleshooting to the monitor. Hope this helps!
