ok fixed it...but now i only get a hum from speakers ..no game sounds....i disconnected speaker wire from mainboard when i was getting reel errors cos it made a bloody awful racket.now i have reconnected it just low pitch hums at me ....i have removed sound board checked for any signs of a foul up and replaced it and tweaked volume type knob on soundcard and tweaked screwdriver type variiable resistor marked volume on main board but no joy .......any ideas?.....i would'nt have thought soundcard forked as it worked when i unplugged it but what do i know .....i did'nt think a loose percentage key would make the bugger say reel error

"I love fruit machine troubleshooting, flipping nightmare that it is "

lol no sh#t

roflmao................decided too have 1 last fiddle while i was takin photo's for canon man.....unplugged and replugged everything....nothing ...quick kick.....nothing still .......wiggled percentage key....voila!!!...booted ........ffs all this time ..who would've guessed a lose percentage key was tooo blame..needless too say i'm happy as pig in shite

soz ben like to help but can't although i would say it can't be 3 mechs......my lack of knowledge says maybe ken and lincs right ...

Did you get a manual for that pacman?

Id like a scan of that if you could

mythicos .......not yet m8 still looking..........will do if i get 1

canon man m8 i am in the midlands and i haven't got a van i'm afraid so pick up only if the price is right..come on down ....i think is psu though machine sayin real error......board only lights on certain voltage led's.....lcd lights but nothing else ..(including bulbs),which i would expect too light if it was reels.....i maybe wrong as always ........all optos lit up on reels so methinks psu slightly forked...checked fuses and seats,but gonna try unseating everything then re-assemble at the weekend ....maybe something came loose cos worked for an hour when i got it home then missus turned it off and has'nt worked properly since

stan marsh....thanx 4 the link m8 but no go ....chorley nearest too me for power supply that i have found googling.......or maybe ebay but nothing yet dammit

personally i use avg free(anti virus),windows firewall (but i also use zonealarm free),spybot search and destroy and spywareblaster together and a great freeware prog called ccleaner(crap cleaner) which is great for removal of temp files,history files and redundant registry entries and is very easy too use......been using those progs for years and i have never had a problem(though zonealarm can be a bit awkward too configure).....damn i hope i haven't tempted fate now
