Maybe his/her next door neighbour bought a cab and asked for it to be left at urban's gaff if there was no answer. Ouch! :pac:

Andrew76

Lovely cab urban! :cool:

Yay! Congrats! I'd say you're delighted!

As for needing extra door space, take the door off the hinges!

Edit - I'd love to see a graph of the importation of Japanese candy cabs in Ireland over the last few years.

Thanks lads,
Got it into place,
Now we have a problem,
switched her on and the screen is blank?
any ideas?

CathalDublin

Try a different board? chase cables back to monitor an make sure they are all plugged in.

thanks cathal,
this is wrecking my head

i dont have any other boards either

CathalDublin

No familiar with the layout of candies but can you see the neck of the monitor, is it glowing?
Is the game playing blind?

Give me a sec,
Any idea what dip should be on a neo geo main board?

o1s1n

Is the monitor black and not powering on or is it on but with no picture?

CathalDublin

You should get the test screen with just the neo geo board plugged in without game
Not sure the dips, what model board is it?

safetyboy

Is it a JVS - Jamma converter?

Andrew76

Are you hearing game sound? You using a step down or was it converted to 240v?

It was converted to 240,
its an mv-1
no glow at the back,
Im fairly sure its not powering on at all.
I was getting sound but I fliped some dips on the neo board now im not.
Dips on the monitor are set as follows 1-on 2-on 3 -off as per page 49 of the manual

Basically you either have something up with your monitor (something came loose in transport etc) or else the game board is dodgy.

If the monitor has a glow (look at the screen, there's a difference between a black screen that's on and a screen that's not powering on) then it's something up with your 1 slot.

If its your monitor, then messing about with the MVS 1 slot isn't going to really yield any results. It was outputting sound so that must mean the MVS slot is working. You may have flipped a dip switch which goes into the settings so that would have stopped the sound.

ffs this is wrecking my head,
the monitor is deffinitly not coming on at all.no glow.

CathalDublin

I'd contact who you bought it from anyway incase its something obvious
Then I'd get out your multimeter and check the power cables running to the chasis, if theres power running to it check the chassis for goo

thanks again cathal,
Im getting 110v going into the chassis.
Wtf is going on i should have something happening.
No goop ether

Anypros fancy coming to take a look?
I think I'll go and drink my self silly

TechnoFreek

Do you mind me asking where/who you got the cab from ledge?

No random wires hanging loose inside which may have disconnected from the chassis? Everything wired into the neck board? Is there a humming sound coming out if it or is it just totally dead?

Im sure youre aware but have to say it anyway, careful not yo touch anything if it hasnt been discharged. Even if powered off.

Yeah i'm bearing carefull.
Got it off jeff from digital design systems .

theres a humming but i think its from the speakers/psu fan

the small board directly behind the tube is the chassis yea?Every thing looks connected,
