Title: Maxx mega touch 2001 game problem
Post by: hoosierdirt on January 11, 2013, 10:03:05 PM
hello

I bought this machine from a guy he said it worked last time he used it which has been couple years anyway he said when he turned it on nothing i opened it up and when theres power to it you can see that theres voltage to the screen but its black i checked the power supply but didnt get anything out of it so i jumpered the green and black wire on the plug and everything powered up so why isnt the game powering up without jumper it says on screen no 80 pin cable you can go to setup screen and thats it

There is a small coin type battery under the I/O board, you need to install a new one and power the machine back up.

Probably need to re set the CMOS settings, time, date, etc.

Hook up a old computer keyboard up to the upper portion of the PCB turn the game back on and when that screen comes up, press F1 and the game may cycle and come up to the "Loading" screen and be ready for play, if not then press delete and set the time and date and save your changes.

Here are the steps:

Press delete to enter set up
Load set up defaults (press enter)

Select standard cosmos setup, then press enter
Set date and time
Scroll to "hard disks, all types and modes and set them to "auto"

Verify all settings and hit esc.
Press F10 key

Primary slave/none should not be an issue. turn the machine off and back on again after setting everything and it will go through @ 2 minutes of loading everything up and the "MAXX" screen should come back up then the "Loading" screen should come up and the the bar should fill up and go to ready to play mode.
