Bally EVO to Alpha Conversion...

(1/2) > >>

Ash100:
I recently received 2 Bally EVO machines, Video only, no Reels.

Neither one will Boot, nothing on the CRT other than "No Signal"

Both have clean looking MPUs, and the Suitcase in each one seems clean.

I changed the MPU Battery but don't have the correct one for the Suitcase. Plus, neither machine came with the Discs for the Drive.

So, my thoughts were this...What is needed to do the Alpha Conversion on the EVO besides the MPU and appropriate software?

Does the Suitcase get eliminated, or is it still required?

I'd prefer the Alpha over the original if it means I won't have to find obsolete software,  or if my MPUs are both shot, I'd rather just find a working Alpha Conversion MPU instead of the EVO versions.

Hopefully someone can answer this for me.

Thanks,

Curtis ash100

I wouldn't do the conversion. better to find an alpha parts complete.  see pic.  what are the themes you need CDs for? I have some, but would have to find them. sometimes easier said than done.

Thanks,

Pearly Gates was in my drawer.

Ash100:
Thanks for the quick reply.

Attached are photos of the MPU EPROMS and the Award Glass. Both machines are identical.

Seems there's more to the conversion than I realized. So, hopefully I can get at least one of these games up and running again.

I have no idea if this will help but here's the massive thread on my EVO repair. I eventually sold the dang thing once it was working. I just didn't want to deal with the trauma of troubleshooting all its oddball issues.
