It seems that the game that we are trying to run needs a specific bottom deck, that's why we are having problems to configure the machine. By the way does anyone knows about jurisdiction eprom in this platform?

When a Full Clear is made, I can see the library of available games to set in the machine. From 24 games I can just choose 12 for a specific denomination. Adding new games on the machine requires The procedure mention before.

Thank you for your reply. we have the game maker HD in our bars and taverns. every 6 months or so it has a new set of games.  do you know anywhere where I could buy a multi game card. I have turned the  key on the.side and I am able to see the games I have available but most are poker the only multi line slot game is winning ways.
 I really appreciate your help I have looked high and low east coast to west coast to find somebody that's even heard of the HD version of Game Maker

Well buddy, that's a hard request. Compact Flash game themes run along with a compatible OS compact flash also, not to mention a valid jurisdictional EPROM. Also is very important that your main processor board runs in 1GHz and have a memory ram of 1G . When the machine powers up you are able to see the this info. Most of the first generation multigame runs on a 300-400 MHz. So considering add slot games to the machine has to be hardware compatible also. Then, the toughness part, the button deck. Is a USB one, with a interface board. So upgrading this machine for more slot games is kind of difficult.. But not impossible.

I am disabled so takes me awhile to go downstairs to the game room.  I will turn the machine off and on and see if its a 1 gig or not.  on the upper glass piece on the game it says 2007.  the game has a main HD screen and above that a  what game you are playing.  certain games are active with certain denominations which runs from 1 cent to 1 dollar.  the games I have now include American originals 2 way black and white sevens sizzling 7's 3 different poker games a keno and a blackjack game. When I look at the setup screen it says the jurisdiction is Las Vegas Nevada.
 I hope some of this makes sense

AVGGMM402200-03 For the game suit, and AVOS 00000322-09 for the Os. Jurisdiction is a Generic USA. By the way, the only slots games available in this suit are four, the ones you mention an Wining Times in this case. No more slot games available...

Ok now I don't have to worry about expanding things. at a later time I might want to remove a poker game and add the winning ways.  I will contact this thread when I need to learn how to clear the game and choose new games that are already on the card
 THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ALL OF YOUR TIME

Title: Re: Bally HD? jurisdiction chip
Post by: xraymichael on December 23, 2012, 01:13:33 AM
Hello again
 my game comes with a ticket printer and it has tickets in it.  I have a chance to buy a California tribal jurisdiction chip
 it is my understanding that if I install this it will make my printer be operable. if this is true could I pay to have somebody walk me through this over the phone.  I have the clear flash card for the game. I understand some settings also have to be changed
 thank you
Mike

I'll email you the instructions.... The major concern should be having a standard validation in the comm options to get the printer working.

Hey
 I just opened an envelope and and it has a manual in it I bought a month ago on ebay and I forgot all about it.  it says in red letters on a white background Bally gaming plus systems. at the bottom it says set up an operation alpha

 the load out at the bottom of the cover it says module 2:MK2-ALAPH-0002.
 it has many sections. it has a set up section and then a section were you need the clear card to change things. I would say to do I clear it if there's probably 17 stops that I have to know what to reset. it also else for a serial number for the game and then I believe a number called and asked set number which I wouldn't know what that was. my machine has no coins hopper or anything to do with coins. it talks about knowing the printer model in the bill validator model. I have a dinner to cook tomorrow. I would like to read it over and ask you questions about it and maybe I could call you so that way it would be my minutes that were being used. it has many steps in the clear portion Albert were they use the letters SDS . I can configure the old game makers I have in about 7 steps after the clear chip is in this seems like a nightmare but maybe once I go through it I'll be able to do it on my own
 thank you sir
Mike
