GK Software Problem
« on: September 19, 2016, 10:04:11 PM »
I have some non-simm software in a 3902 board giving this error message, with or without being keyed first.
After turning the reset key it just sits there and will not boot.

Any ideas what the problem is and can this set be saved?

It won't get that far.  If I use the key chip, it accepts all three yes options, gives the green box to replace the base chip, put the board back in with the base chip and the error screen comes up and I'm done.

So I just decided to let it run.  After clearing the error screen I just get a black screen that doesn't change and every few minutes the same error screen pops up.

Got another cabinet?  Or maybe a different backplane to try?

Your software is mis-matched.  G1777 is part of GK 4.0, M888 & C793 belong with GK 4.3  You need GK 4.3 GME chips like G2142 or G2771, and there are probably others too.

I'm so stoopid, I just put them in the way I got em, what would we do without you.

So here's the psr  http://media.igt.com/support/psrs/M888PSR.pdf

I now have in hand all of the chips in the psr and what, no GME chips?

Do the CG's go where the GME chips should go?

CG's go where CG chips go, usually under where the CGF Simm goes, there should be a pair of sockets nearby.

No, you must have GME chips as well.  G2142 and G2771 are GK 4.3 GME chip sets, I'm sure there are others.
