Hello, everyone. I recently picked up one of these Big Tony’s Pokerkard Arcade Table’s and it was basically gutted but i figured $200 was still a good price for a project. The only things included were the Touchscreen, Power Supply, and a single Pokerkard. My question is: Would i be able to just install a new pc and duplicate the hard drive image + usb security drive? Additionally, where can I find the two serial cards needed to connect the touchscreen as those were missing as well. I wish it were easier to acquire a pc from an old unit but they are hard to find nowadays. Thanks in advance :)

Those boards are most likely next to impossible to find. They look to be custom to the game. I have never seen anything like them before, well at least the jamma card. Your best bet would probably be to convert it to a PC multicade cocktail cabinet. They do make USB touch screen overlays, but you could also add in buttons and joysticks or just buttons.
