Re: Omega Race

MessageChris- What would your machine do when it reset? Also- I am getting no video. Was it you who posted last year about the cap replacement? If so which ones did you use?

Thanks

  Those BIG Filter caps on the power supply, get rid of them and replace with good ones. My CPU would hang because the caps read good, and then a load was placed on them, and I got a nasty spike on the +5 logic that put mine into a perpetual RESET mode.

    Howdy Y''all

    I have an Omega Race that plays blind. The selftest says Roms 9 through 14 are bad. Do Roms 13 &14 need to be programmed with anything special? If so- is there a list member who can burn these for me- for a price For that matter, is there anyone with the right replacements for mine that are bad?

    Also, is there any good way to test this monitor without a working board? I will occasionally get random (yet crisp)garbage scrolling across it- today- nada. The LED is illuminated on the monitor PCB.

    Thanks

    Nooner
