I've had a 550 for the past few years and it developed a problem today that I need help on.I played it earlier today and everything worked fine (running Lucky Leprechaun).After leaving it alone for a few hours I came back to it and noticed that the screen (an LCD) was flickering on and off. The game was still there, and when you pushed the play buttons it worked and you could hear the spins payouts, but the screen was mostly black, with flashes of smeared graphics and sometimes the game.I cycled the machine off and on a few times, same problem.I left it off for 4 hours, but same problem when turned back on.
At the same time, the fluorescent lights on the belly panel are blinking intermittently and the first three "bet" button lights are off.I had an extra MPU/Video card, so I swapped it, but with the same results.Any ideas what might cause this problem?A power supply, maybe?Again, everything seems to work ok on the game, but the lights and monitor flashing has me spooked.any advice is most welcome.
