check nothings loose ( do this with the power off you dont want to short anything out or hurt yourself )


when i say loose i mean like cables to the motherboard, gamecard etc.

I tried that but still no Joy I don't understand why the red light (reset button) is constantly flashing any ideas

my guess is that it is flashing because there is a problem that the machine cannot display on the alpha display itself .... usually its trying to tell you theres a problem stopping ht machine from starting up and its usually the gamecard not in properly or the gamecards faulty

on the motherboard there should be a smaller board sticking out of it (on this machine I think it should be at the bottom )

with the machine off try and gently see if it will push in further then try the machine again



just noticed you said there are no other lights on the board ?

It could be a dead power pack but if there were no other lights I would suspect the reset light shouldnt be lighting up at all

see if there are any lights on the PSU which should be a silver box with holes in it in the bottom door
