Title: New Stampede trouble
Post by: jsmith on September 20, 2011, 01:55:27 PM
  I have replaced my power supply with one purchased on E-bay and now I have a completely different problem. :103-  When I turn on the machine the display shows as in the 1st photo. :208-
     After I push, what I believe is the reset, a buzz is heard and then the display is changed to what is seen in the 2nd photo. :208- The reels are locked and do not spin on start-up which it always did when it was working.
      All LED's are lit ( minus the Fail LED )   From the photos, can anyone tell me what have to do in order to get it up and running again. 
        Thanks
           Smitty

You need a .25 clear chip. Blueridge has them and I am sure a few others do.

For whatever reason, the game believes that you've changed the software type that was in it ("Game Change 2"), and it's telling you that it needs a RAM clear in order to continue ("Need Clear").

The RAM clear procedure is detailed, step-by-step, starting at the bottom of the 5th page of the .pdf entitled, "WMS Game Change.pdf" which is attached to the bottom of this post (http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?topic=805.0).

  To Dale and Knagl: :244-

           Thanks for the tips.  I contacted Blueridge and a chip is on it's way.  It also looks as though I can tackle the job of switching it out (due to your help Knagl on finding that article)
                 :131-  Thanks so much-- Jsmith
