That seller is retail. Title: Re: centipede k5 error Post by: Beary White on July 01, 2015, 10:10:50 pm Ive already got one coming for 80 shipped my guess is you're probably friends with that guy being as how he tried the same scare tactics on me and failed
Title: Re: centipede k5 error Post by: iankellogg on July 01, 2015, 10:19:09 pm there are a few things that could be going on with your board. K5 is the very first ram chip to be tested. if there isn't anything you can do by swapping ram chips around to change the K5 error then its something going on with the whole ram address or data chain to those ram chips.
Title: Re: centipede k5 error Post by: Beary White on July 02, 2015, 07:21:38 am that is what scares me ian would it be wise to just replace all the ram? ive got a good working board on the way i figure ill fix this one in my spare time
Title: Re: centipede k5 error Post by: Beary White on July 02, 2015, 07:34:15 am also Ian another quick question do you sell big blues? if so how much shipped?
Title: Re: centipede k5 error Post by: iankellogg on July 02, 2015, 07:35:08 am I kind of doubt all of the ram is bad. Like I said. If there is no combination that you can swap the ram that is already in the board then you have a much more involved solution. If you have a logic probe I might be able to help.
Title: Re: centipede k5 error Post by: iankellogg on July 02, 2015, 07:35:48 am I don't sell them because they cost a ton and many other places have them for cheaper than I could sell them at.
Title: Re: centipede k5 error Post by: Beary White on July 02, 2015, 07:45:06 am I do not have a logic probe im not real sure how to use one either im sure I could learn on google this is my first arcade so im learning as I go I did fix the monitor with a cap kit which ive never done before so i feel like i can accomplish anything now lol
Title: Re: centipede k5 error Post by: Beary White on July 02, 2015, 07:46:50 am can you point me in the direction of a place to get a big blue other than bob roberts?
perferably a site that uses paypal i checked twistywrist and i dont think they sell them Title: Re: centipede k5 error Post by: VertexGuy on July 02, 2015, 11:02:13 am Ive already got one coming for 80 shipped my guess is you're probably friends with that guy being as how he tried the same scare tactics on me and failed I don't know him, I bought 2 centipede boards from bstguy though. I paid 90 a piece. ended up getting stuck with 5 centipede boards so earlier this year this was posted here on these forums and it sold. http://www.johnsarcade.com/forum/index.php?topic=2123.0 Title: Re: centipede k5 error Post by: VertexGuy on July 02, 2015, 11:04:29 am can you point me in the direction of a place to get a big blue other than bob roberts? perferably a site that uses paypal i checked twistywrist and i dont think they sell them I have em Title: Re: centipede k5 error Post by: VertexGuy on July 02, 2015, 11:06:34 am that is what scares me ian would it be wise to just replace all the ram? ive got a good working board on the way i figure ill fix this one in my spare time It be wise to just buy a known working board . Even if you fix that ram bullshit, who is to say that those buffers for the trackball aren't bad? Title: Re: centipede k5 error Post by: Beary White on July 02, 2015, 11:14:32 am I did i have the working board on the way a guy on KLOV sold me on for 80 shipped ill be out of town his weekend but so i should get it like wednesday or thursday next week
