    Metal Slug 4 (Compatibility?) issue

    So I recently acquired Metal Slug 4 (insert argument about the game's quality) but the real problem is... I can't get it to work. In my MVS-U4-25, the 4-slot board doesn't see that slot as being occupied at all. I also tried it in a CMVS I got a while back - an MV-1C. No luck there - I just...

    Need help figuring out an issue on a SF2:WW

    So a friend and fellow forum member picked up a World Warrior (not bootleg) board a while back that 'mostly' seems to run fine with a curious issue: some of the sprites do this strobing/flashing thing rapidly, a bit like how games various capcom games would try to do transparency effects from...

    Question about resetting/Unibios Exceptions on an MV1-FZ

    So I've got an MVS board (MV1-FZ) that I've brought to a friends' house and hooked up to his cab. After playing for a bit, Unibios (3.1) will catch a random exception, necessitating a reboot. I believe without unibios these would be either a reset or a freeze. My question is... is this kind of...

    So I've got an MVS-U4-25 (READ: Candy cab) where I have a key for *most* of it (Mini Marquee area, back, and control panel) but two things: I'm a little nervous about losing the key, but the locks seem to differ juuuust enough I've had a hard time getting the key repro'd at a locksmith that...

    MVS 1-slot and dodgy physical connection with Jamma Harness

    So long story short I brought a one slot I have (that I haven't used a lot but have verified worked for about 15 minutes on a supergun) to a friends' house and plugged it into his JAMMA cab. ...and basically got it resetting/blinking a bunch of stuff. A bit of testing and fiddling, and my...

    Using Neo Geo (and JAMMA stuff in general) w/ old Amiga/Commodore monitors?

    So I think my old Commodore 1950 might actually still work - this isn't just NTSC like an 1080 but I think is 15KHz, etc capable. What is required to use something like this with arcade hardware? Any active hardware, or just a passive cable/correct wiring? I think the (captive) cable it has...

    Need clarification on mvs mobo compatibility with superguns, etc

    Pretty new to arcade hardware ownership, so hopefully I won't mangle questions or terminology too much. So, I'm aware that - for example - MVS cabinets aren't 100% JAMMA compatible and trying to use a JAMMA pcb in an MVS cabinet...or an MVS mobo in a JAMMA cabinet is problematic because of the...

    MVS-U4-25 Candy - Control panel question, help needed!

    So I just got my first candy - an MVS-U4-25. The sticks in it currently are some LS32 ripoffs (Zippy) sticks. The control panel doesn't have any kind of mounting bracket inside, so I guess it mounts with screws from the top directly. I know/believe that this cab originally shipped with LS32...
