Okay, but are they sharing the same ground?

Note: I know bugger all about PSUs, so take any advice that I offer with a few seas of salt!

Okay, but might be worth checking on jammaplus as there are people on there who know far more about PSUs than me.

Have you tried the other board yet?

And all the voltages are now present, correct and reading as they should?

Re the transformer - someone in the tech area in jammaplus is bound to know.

Sounds like both boards are watchdogging (resetting) as the code isn't being run correctly, which is either down to bad voltages or board problems. You could try reseating the program EPROMs.

Muerto : where are you with your Gauntlet pcb ?

By the way, I saw, as a KLOV user, that you are looking for a Gauntlet II pcb too ;).



As I wrote to you on J+, I've got that pcb (fully functional) : if you need anything to know, I can perhaps help you.

Finally due to the weather, i got some time to work on my Gauntlet...
I installed the power for +12VAC, got an old monitor setup, did a little wireing.......
and there was picture...!!!!!
The PCB started up in Setup mode (i did´nt connect coin and P1/P2/P3/P4)
though for operating the setup i just put P1 on, and used the "start" wire to hid GND on the PCB
for switching modes in setup...

Hello World:




but as you can see, the picture is not centered! - and after using 5 min or so to trying
to get it centered i gave up  :( - what can be the problem?
The monitor i used for this is _NOT_ the same that was in the cab! (but can that make a difference)
