Game King Version?

Sure, you can if you want to.  Nothing to lose at this point since it's not playable anyhow. 

There is one thing I should have warned you about.  The 044 flash boards are pretty static sensitive.  Make sure to ground yourself before handling them and then try to remove/install them holding the card by the edges.

Thanks for the tips and all Tilt. Looks like the battery removal worked fine, took er out, placed mpu back in, fired it up, and wvala!!! Will be watching my ground ,

Thanks,

Great!  Let us know how it goes with the other when you get your keychip.

Well, both these GK's have been doing fairly well though they both tend to be finicky at times.... the 19 will every once in a while get that rainbow confetti screen (this this last time I may have fixed it for good - loose monitor connection) and the 17 every once in a while will get that coin in error. Now I am wondering, as per the 17 having the 3902 MPU with a single denomination version of Game King 4.3 installed.... how much will a more dynamic chip cost me that might include more games and denominations? Are there any game chips for this 17 that incorporate a bunch more slot games? Am interested in adding more bells and whistles via a new game chip, ideas?

Your current GK 4.3 software is a single denomination version.  You can change it to multi-denomination by changing out the GME chips with ones that support it.  G0002142 is one.  That doesn't get you any new games, but allows you to be able to play more.  You can set up to 12 games per denomination in the MD version. 

You could get GK4.0 too, it has more slots and keno. You'd have to change out all your chips for it.  Here's the games M0000531 GK4.0 has:

Bonus Poker
Deuces Wild Poker
Double Bonus Poker
Jacks or Better Poker
Joker Poker
ACE$ Bonus Poker
Bonus Poker Deluxe
Double Double Bonus Poker
Deuces Wild Bonus Poker
Double Deuce Poker
Loose Deuce Poker
Triple Bonus Poker Plus
ShockWave Poker
Keno
4-Card Keno
Super Keno
Caveman Keno
Top-Bottom Keno
3-6-9 Way Keno
2-4-6 Way Keno
Super Way Keno
Black Rhino Slot
Super 8 Line Slot
Diamond Mine Slot
Wild Flower Slot
Lion Fish Slot
Super 8 Race Slot
Blackjack

There are several different variations of GK4.0, but they have a mix of poker, slots, and keno.  4.3 is primarily different poker games.  I think Samron Slots (NLG Username rjpohl) has some 4.0 sets for sale.
