Title: V7200(?) board replacement? Acid Damage...
Post by: modessitt on January 03, 2012, 02:53:57 PM
Got called out to look at a couple slots, one of which was a GM with a "SAFERAM" error message.  I think it's a V7200, as it has a couple labels that say "SMI V7200 FOXWOODS".  I'm adding the crappy cell-phone pictures below if anyone can confirm or deny.  It also has screened on the board "BALLY GAMING INC. (C)1992,1993,1994  AS-3356-246".

Anyway, it has acid damage all over one corner.  I'm hoping there is a way to buy a working board that I can swap (or burn new) game program chips to?  I'd think that would be cheaper - not to mention easier - than trying to remove all the parts in the affected area, cleaning off all of the corrosion, and then attempting to repopulate it with good parts.

So - pictures are below, and any help would be appreciated.  Perhaps knowledge of a vendor I can get a good board from?  What I expect to pay for one? I'd rather not take a chance on an untested or non-working board from E-Bay.

Thanks...

I'll probably have my boss call him later.  Not sure if I'll have to replace the game roms or not, and I'll probably need a saferam clear chip, too...
