As per title. Clearing out the garage and finally have enough room to actually walk around - and enough room to try and get Cluedo working! It always used to power up fine and play the music, but the touchscreen wouldn't respond.
I swapped over the interface board that connects onto the touchscreen membrane (picked up a few spares a year ago), thought I'd turn it on...
... it's bad news - BOTH of my CPU / MEMORY boards have serious battery leakage, which have destroyed basically all the PCB traces in that corner of the board
It had one fitted, and another in a drawer, and both are beyond repair.
So the machine will turn on, the screen powers up, but I'm getting nothing.
Anyway - it's probably a long shot since Impact isn't common anymore (well, perhaps some old £5 examples in arcades, but compared to MPU5 / Scorpion 4/5, it's pretty rare).
... but does anyone have a spare CPU / MEMORY board? I was going to chuck the machine but dad really wants to get it going (correction, wants ME to get it going!), and I'll admit, I'd love to see it back in action.
Can pay you in magic beans, or I suppose I could also stretch to Paypal / Bank Transfer
