Xav,

Sorry for the lateness in responding, but it's been busy leading up to the show.  Now that we're done for this year, I might have some time to help you out :) .  If you're still checking here, LMK...

For starters, could you describe the symptoms for your game?  Some examples:

Does it play blind?  (i.e. can you start a game and hear the game sounds?)
Does the screen have any messages on it (i.e. RAM error, ROM error, CMOS error, etc.)?
What do you see on the screen?  (i.e. rug pattern, solid color, etc.)?

If you are able to look inside the machine at the game boards, there is a small LED light that may be flashing a 3 digit code.  If so, what 3 numbers are flashing in sequence and then repeating?

Also from the back of the cabinet (inside), there is a small board with 3 small LED lights on it.  This is the power supply board.  Are all 3 LED lights actually lit?  If not, which one(s) are unlit?

Let me know on the above or any other relevant information and maybe we can figure out your game's problem.
