Aristocrat MK7 video card install
« on: December 18, 2022, 11:23:34 AM »
I need some help before pulling the rest of my hair out!

I am trying to install a GT430 video card i just got from GETT. It is for an Aristocrat machine with the correct flash. I may just not be doing something correct but i will lay out what i have done and the error that it shows.
Here are the machine specs.
19" standard Viridian with the NTX red board installed. Assm# 07-41591_03
It had the splitter "video" card in it prior and was working fine.
Bios# 2.02.2
FCFG# 2.3
can't remember if it has 2gb or 4 gb in the machine.
Wonder 4 game installed 1.04.61520
MBR&BL 4.3
OS 3.05.5
USA platform 4.01.0-1.03.0
Set chip 7.02.03
picture of the error and video card are attached.

Please help before i make this machine an anchor  :banghead:

Thanks, Justin

I think you may have got the monitor cables backwards.Cable for the top monitor on the dvi main connection and vice versa
The booting screen you are showing should be on the bottom monitor.
If the cables are correct then maybe the cable is bad or the bottom monitor isnt working that would make the booting show up on the top screen also.Could also be a bad main monitor output on the video card.

That is the correct bios if that is what is flashed on the card.

The cables were correct. I thought it was odd that it went to the top screen. I did try it with the top cable removed and it did show up on the lower so it all seems good as far as cables and outputs. Hooked up the top monitor again and rebooted. Same result. Top screen with the boot info and the error about a one monitor EGM on a dual screen game.

2.02.2 BIOS does not support a GT430 video card.  You need a GT630 video card with that.  Plus I think that assembly is for a Verve. That games is on a blue label I bet and the assembly won't support that game with a 2.02.2 BIOS.
If it ain't broke don't mess with it.....

I keep learning. The game works with the non video card that is just basically a splitter. I was wanting to put in an actual video card so I can play some newer games.

What is the process to install a new card in one of these.
Do I need to just put in the card and fire it up or do I need to do something else. Like set chip it or clear it

If you change the card have to use a set chip to clear and set the game up again.

Making progress. Even though the cable was fine on the original set up i changed it out and it booted up. Thank you Laneman for the suggestion on the cable.
Thank you all for your input!

Its that red carrier board with the 2.02.2 bios.Works with a GT430 or a 9500GT.Its a Dragon Cash.
The only time I couldnt use either of those video board on any of my red carrier boards was on a newer Dragon Cash game (Genghis Khan).It would play but very slow.

I was unable to play any 3.0X base games on mine with a 2.02.2 bios with either a 430 or a 630.  That's why I ask if he got Wonder 4 to play, but his base is 4.01 so it may play.  For me the board I had came with a 630 so that may be the reason I was unable to use a 430 on it.  The 430 was flashed ATI since it came on a different board with 2.02.1 bios.  Also, the U2 boot chip on these boards may have something to do with it.  ATI sure has made it difficult with all these combinations.

Totally agree here.

I can play this version of Wonder 4 with a red carrier bios 2.02.2 in either a narrow or wide machine.
Games with Linux OS 4.00.C wont run in a narrow machine with a WS carrier board.Will give you a missing top monitor error.

Hey Rich
On your wonder 4 game you showed above, do you have the issue of not being able to drag a new game from the center to one of the playing areas?
Mine can do them if you drag them a short distance but if say you want to pull the Buffalo game to the lower half of the screen it doesn't work well.
Kinda like if you lift your finger off the screen.
Wondering if there is a known problem

Thanks, Justin

Hi Justin,

I don’t have that problem but I believe if I remember correctly someone on the slotech site had the same problem you are having.
If I get a chance today I’ll see if I can find it.
