Having played since US 1.5 Mix...

x1 Flat for life!

i heard rumors that an extreme plus machine isn't downgradable. is that true? Um, I don't believe so. We had EXTREME Plus at a local arcade, but we ended up getting it downgraded to EXTREME again unti ...

You are definitely not going to get Extreme on that system unit with only a copy of the Extreme disc. System 573 has a regional lockout much like many consoles do, and the regions for Extreme (JP) an ...

With the discussion of monitor repair, I thought this would be a good time to restate a general warning about CRT monitors.

If you don't know what you're doing on a CRT, don't guess! CRTs contain ...

Yes. The flash card is PCMCIA. The System 573 unit has two PCMCIA slots on it that look very much like the ones found on most laptops.

Check your system to see if it already has a card in one of ...

I haven't really had an opportunity to examine a DDR USA system. However...

DDR USA is based on 3rd Mix, so I am pretty sure that a 3rd Mix or later kit would likely work.

I can tell you want t ...

Did you already do the upgrade or are you trying to upgrade?

I'm not 100% sure on this (I don't read Japanese), but based on my experience with these machines I believe it's telling you that you ha ...

Any word on those pictures? My arcade is in the process of being remolded/rebuilt, So it's closed.
Sorry for the long delay. Here's a link to the picture of the inside of a DDR arrow from my stage m ...

I do, but what is it that you really want to see? There really isn't that much to look at. Between the pictures and the descriptions, you ought to be able to understand what steps can be taken to i ...

Allow me to direct you to the [url=http://www.ddrfreak.com/library/contributor-article.php?postID=7909984]guide on stage maintenance I wrote quite sometime ago. It includes just the pictures I think ...

There should be two connections between the memory card unit and the main System 573 unit. One is for power and goes from the memory card unit back into the main JAMMA harness. The other is a data c ...

First off, it's perfectly normal for only the 2P side of the stage to light up during boot, so that's not a problem.

I've seen this error before. Of course I've seen a lot of errors before and I d ...

They fixed it but in the upper right hand corner there is a bluish tint to it(its very small and only makes the end inch of the lifebar blue).

Here's a theory for you on the sensitivity of the green sensors. If the fit in the holder sis very snug, it may be deforming the sensor slightly. In other words, the holder is squeezing the sides of ...

Loading slowness, errors, and freezes could be caused by a bad or dirty disc. These older CD-ROM drives are a lot less forgiving than modern ones in what they can reliably read. Try burning a copy o ...
