Title: FIXED: Game King , locating base chip Post by: roboto on January 08, 2013, 11:55:57 PM I have a game king bar top video poker machine . I would like to change the denomination and games . There seems to be only one circuit board and its mounted under the lcd monitor . The key 22 chip that I have does not fit into any of the sockets on this circuit board. Isnt there suppose to be a motherboard and a MPU board ? The largest chip has only 16pins ? Could this be the base chip ? Which key chip do I need to set the games ? Does any one have experience with the IGT bar tops ?
I have posted a dozen pictures under my profile; for those familiar with the GK bartops. http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?action=profile;u=8377;sa=pictures (http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?action=profile;u=8377;sa=pictures) Title: Re: Game King , help with base chip and set chip Post by: turniphead on January 09, 2013, 12:09:31 AM Hi Roboto!! The mpu is the main board with the game & base chips on it & the motherboard is the board that the back of the mpu plugs into. You will have to remove the base chip, install the key chip where the base was, power up and follow on screen instructions.
Post a few pics of your machine including a pic of the mpu and we'll be able to help more! Good luck!!

Remove the belly door to access it.

As I stated in my previous post, the MPU board is located in the base of the machine, by your feet. You must remove the belly door (lift up on that white knob next to the speaker to release it, then pull the belly door towards you) to access it. Make sure to always have the power OFF when removing or inserting the MPU board.

Get a little lower in the unit like at the bottom. It will be in a slide out tray about 15" wide with a handle and pretty leds on it.

i pulled up the white plunger release next to the speaker and the belly door opened ! removal of the belly door, Mobo, base chip, etc was pretty painless . once i clean up my machine i'll post a youtube video for others . now i have to figure why my bill stacker is so fickle . I will start another thread . |
