Mine was doing the thing at the end and it looked like it was raining sideways, how did you fix that?

Wow - that's amazing! What's the "rejuv" setting on this device, is that the maximum (hit it with a sledgehammer) to get the CRT watchable until a new one comes in? I want one of these now - don't really have $3k though. Thanks for explaining the more technical aspect - the ratios of cutoff seem as if they would be quite important on newer CRTs and how their circuitry works with the tube. My 34" HD Toshiba the horizontal output is a single chip (SMD) which I DONT like - I prefer discrete components so I can actually fix rather than replace the unit (that seems like what they build new things for - throw them away and buy a new one). I remember my Goldstar monitor in 1998 - got it for $130 it failed paid $40 shipping for warranty repair it then failed completely. (The Horizontal Output pulse was just "1" (High) and it fried the flyback some time later)

Dude, I can't thank you enough for this vid! Excellent step by step breakdown, fantastic. I was having the same issue, voltages good going into the transformer, squat on the output. Desoldered, cleaned all lugs, trimmed and tinned all connections and bam! Solid. Much appreciated.

Nice!

Hello bro i would like to contact you do u have any social accounts

thanks for the video. I just picked up a cr70 for a good price but it was missing all the manuals, so this helped me field test it while I find the manuals online. Thanks again!

Do you work on these?

Oh man this thing uses a 3dFX board? Good luck finding any of those around..these cards were the go to card when they first came out in the PC World. We are talking 25 years ago! You could prob hook that video into any old computer to see if it works provided you have the proper slot for it..I believe it was an AGP Slot. ohhh as I write this I see you hooked it up to an LCD screen.. Thing is, you could put any cheap AMD or Nvidia card that would be better..but the problem is that you will get no display cause the system wouldn't have any drivers to run that card since the images to rebuild the drive are old and the OS is locked down I am sure. Most are just Linux builds from what I have seen. This is pretty much a PC that is hooked up to an Arcade Monitor. So fixing these things you have to think like you are fixing a PC than fixing a Coin Op Arcade.

This is really helping me. I just picked up both BH2 & CK with issues last week. Hope we get em fixed!! Congrats 🎉on your progress. Will check on klov too!

Are you into vintage PCs? If so, I have a bunch of parts where you can piece together a few PCs. I can bring the bin to Troy's and you are welcome to take it all.

Wow, this brings me back:). Dell used this chassis for many years, including the original Pentium. This Optiplex was a staple in my college. All the labs had these. That was the time I first used Windows NT. Some years later I was fixing and selling these on the side:). Remember playing Command & Conquer against my friend on school's LAN. Good times. I still have the CDs :).

Do you have that book on pdf? im searching for it cuz i need it, i do have that cr7000 but not that book

I have the v1 software. Waiting on the chip for the latest version.

Awesome video as always. i am glad to know the PCB's are working good and i can put other rom sets on them to make new games available to play. it was uneventful but that is not a bad thing, i learned things i did not know and may not have ever known if it was not for your experimentation and teaching of how things work. thank you so much for what you do for this hobby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have both the labprog+ and the jetprog. Only the labprog+ works on Windows10. Is there a reason for that? And is there a way to get Jetprog to work on Windows 10?

I'm confused when you Strap for the Master Side VS the Slave Side, what is the dipswitches strapping doing? its changing the addressing to the ROM chips or what?

How’s the game doing today ? I just picked up a cockpit but needs work. Blue screen. No sound. Any suggestions on what could be wrong ?

My drive just broke today, thanks for the video mate! My day was about to get ruined!

Hi I have a GALAXIAN board with no daughter board for the roms where can I get the adapter you are mentioning? By the way thanks to you I can bring life back to a board and a game machine that has sat dormant for years

I'm having the same issue 131 and it's new chip tried you same thing the magic didn't work

Hi love your videos best education for me since I am just starting to learn how to repair boards. I am working on a centipede board and I have repaired it and it is up and going on the bench but the trackball just goes to the left and doesn’t move. I tested the movements and they are changing states at the chips and I see .7v to 4.9v from the trackball but still no change and it doesn’t work. Any advice I tested the 74ls191 74ls74 74ls157 40106 and they all perform fine

Excellent work. That's one finished and done!

Most arcade games use Chicklet Style Size Capacitors. Why do they use Chicklet capacitors because the Chicklet must have to do with either the temperature or ESR.

Down the rabbit hole with nv ram... This kind of research can be troublesome

Great job on the PCB build! and programming that NVRAM is weird. I had no idea you could do that.

The reason Mica caps are used in the oscillator circuit is because they are extremely stable. Even under heated conditions, they just do not drift, and they are usually more accurate on their value. This affords a very stable, and consistent frequency. Ceramic caps are generally not used in those types of circuits, because they tend to drift, and are very touchy when it come to heat. They are mostly just used in bypass circuits where accuracy is not critical.

Why would a switching power supply causing timing issues of the read/write times for the NVRAM? you mentioned it in the video at time 9:40

Such a fuuuuuuuun game :)

On the Lower Board Location U42 A W27C512 I believe is the ID Chip tell the software that it is a Chipmaster 6000, LAB Tool 48, or Dataman 48 / Dataman 48LV I will have a backup on my site of the Chipmaster 6000 in the next day or two. If you care to share copy of yours?

Awesome video!!!! glad it was an easy fix!!!!

The I/O switches are getting detected read by a multiplexer chip that will output a data signal, what is that multiplex data signal called? Because each switch will have a certain multiplexer data signal

Between this video and the comment about gluing the gear, I am back in business. Thank you!

Hi I really love your videos and it inspired me to start learning how to repair boards. I repaired 7 defender sets and 4 stargate sets. I just got a centipede board and I repaired it to the point where I get an almost working game with half the screen with jumbling characters. I don’t have the game harness with the test switch and I was wondering if you could help me how to get it into test mode any help would be greatly appreciated Phil

Great setup, thanks for the tour.

Your arcade just kills man! Love it!

Gen-X here, very impressive! Just retire that Millipede machine and replace it with fully working Centipede (1983 South Eastern MA State Champion: 14yrs old / Centipede)

0:15 You pronounce his last name "Shabo." He's Hungarian, I believe:).

6:54 You give the answer to your own question just seconds later lol. The top and the 2 clouds are all Karate Champ. ;)

Was that a Taito Frontline burn in? I just swapped a tube on one and it’s pretty close. I really enjoy watching your repair videos. They are really helpful.

Why aren't you making repair videos much this year?

Hey. Have the same issue. Cut the slam switch. Still making noise. I can hear the game play faintly same as yours. What should I do?

@jacklick thanks for the great videos. can you explain how you wired up the speaker connection. In particular how you wired it from the board, which pins. Did you just join all four channels together out to one wire for the amplifier and ground to the other wire?

100% is the gear, dust or dirt

@jacklick I like that fingerboard...can't seem to find one like that on the Internet. Where did you source that from?

There is a Bugtrap 2074 on eBay right now are they worth it?

Lubes used in the video list? In the middle of doing this on my pp lol

What is the book you are referencing at 23:30?

Very nice taste, indeed. Just sent a message through KLOV. Congrats, amazing job.

when doing a self test do you know what a #15 error is?

Good game by atari thanks for sharing this classic game
