Bally Alpha Elite error

[sakwilla]

Hi all my Bally V32 Eite came up wih a NVRAM battery low error. i replaced it with a new one and cleared the machine. When I put the game and os card in after clearing It gets stuck on the screen below "Getting disk data"

I have cleared the machine many times and no issues until now.
Any ideas or suggestions to fix this error?

Have also tried different OS Card as thought it might be the card with the issue but not.
Does anyone know how to access the hard drive on the Alpha Elite?

I have a spare hard drive from my Bally 22/22 and tried to connect it as noticed a black connect in the CPU but dont think it worked.

If anyone can offer ideas or how to check hard drive connection it would be greatly appreciated as always

I don't understand your issue.  You went from a V32 elite to a hard drive on a 22/22.  V32 Elites using alpha mpu's do not use a hard drive, unless you V32 has been upgraded to alpha 2?

Apologies Rick - it is an old Bally Alpha Elite-

I wasnt aware they didnt come with a hard drive. Mark helped me out and the issue was the game card. Its been replaced and now working fine.
