Bally Alpha Board Operating System
« on: September 30, 2014, 01:41:51 PM »
I have a couple Bally alpha boards assy.# PCA39456-4-0 rev a they also have a tag that says 203587 rev a. As I see this according to the alpha matrix I should be running a 342 os and a 342 clear with a AVBP26S1GHZ-03 Bios. Is this correct ?? Does anyone have a 342 os and clear?? Is there another way to go with this ?? Thanks Scott

I use AVOS336 and Clear 335 for that.

Do you have the bios #?  The bios you said should be the one.

The matrix I'm looking at says MPU#203587 should be running the GHZ-05.

The 1ghz bios with 336 os will work,does work on a alpha gamemaker 1-gig box,non-expandable mem. wise. And use a 335 clear on this.  If you say it does not work, Is it just black-screen or a good box that you are just changing to get this going?.  Also What Version Gamemaker Suite are you running -If I missed it in your post (possible with me- :duh: ).  The three I seen/had/have used a 203604 in them.

For some reason, the matrix is specifically saying to run a 342-00 clear, GHZ-05 BIOS and 342-04 O/S with that 203587 MPU. Strange

Yes, But the combo's stated in all the posts here have been tried,working and proved.  There are some variances from the matrix also which it does not list.  Best off knowing now what game cf suite you are trying to use and on what equipment.  That would help things some I would think.  When I say equip. I don't mean just alpha- which alpha.

Bios AVBBP26S1GHZ-03 - 8MEG - Is for a GameMaker style 1gig MPU.
AVBBP26SIMPU-07 - 16MEG is for the newer 1gig MPUs that has expandable memory slots.


I remember I tried running a GameMaker style board in my machine and I had simular problem with not reading cards or RAM CLEAR but when the board went into another machine, it worked fine. I am not sure what the problem was. Does it have anything to do with the backplane?

No, it doesnt have to do with the backplane. It seams to be cf card related. Cards will work in 1 machine and not the other and cant seem to figure why. I did finally get a combination to work but it was very trying. Went with a 336-4 os and 1ghz bios with a 335 clear. Scott
