Title: machine freeze
Post by: Delma on October 19, 2023, 10:24:54 AM

Alpha 2 machine running velocity software. CPU is 2.1. Having issues with the machine freezing every 5 secs. It'll play then freeze, play then freeze. Tried clearing and setting back up but its doing the same thing in the setup and boot process. while its not froze i can touch the screen but then for the 1 sec it freezes i can't. Never seen this issue before. it's not just the screen its like the whole machine freezes.  :Scratch-Head:

I installed Velocity in my Alpha 2 Wave and had the same issue of freezing. The machine became unresponsive and I had to reboot, only to have it happen again. In my case the cause was in the game setup. Velocity must be setup for one cent denomination. I set it up accordingly and the machine never froze or locked up again. It's been running flawlessly ever since.

I think the Velocity games need 8 gb RAM minimum, but I would try 16 just to make sure

Well then could it be CPU then? or maybe just something else in the machine like power supply? I tried swapping the hard drives in this CPU to just a regular firelink game and I have the same issue.

This is what machine is doing. You can see it going in and out.
