You could try to tricking it into a reset, by shorting pins 5, and 6, of the 8 pin, memory IC,
while plugging the set into the mains, then releasing the short, it's worth a try.
Good Luck,
John.

Would this be ok and not cause any damage?, i'm no engineer but i'm sure i'd be able to do that.

Hi,

It's fine to do this to eeproms, (24xxx types only).
you can short them together or to pin 4 (gnd)

Nice game cab btw, I've got one in the garage I'm working on too.
I've got the cab, joysticks and buttons, a nice amp, pc (going to use it for music, mame and other games), but was considering putting an old xbox instead as I got one for a few quid the other day - think it will stay pc tho.

Cheers,
Si

As first. If he has a machine digitally and analogously choice must to press button for analogously for you can come to menu only in analog choice. Other -experiments to remove eeprom possibly that a machine will turn on or experiments to come to a stop other twill or will must to write down new program to eeprom

I'll have to give it a go, as long as it doesn't mean I erase something and make my tv useless!!, so you have an arcade cab then? are you on any retro-gaming forums?

retromax:
Would the 8 pin memory IC be the socketed chip?, I can see one 8 pin chip that is socketed and on the pcb is labeled IC600 the chip it's self says 24LC16B, I/P2MA, 0406

I don't want to break the damn thing as I would need the same model TV to match my machine.

The thing is as far as I can make out from the service manual (remember i'm no engineer) I should be looking for the ST24LC21 chip???
