Title: My First I-Game with 4 GME Chips Post by: jdkmunch on September 27, 2010, 06:30:12 PM I just picked up snow globes - my first game that has 5 simms and 4 gme chips. Where do they go?? lol
The chips are labeled gme1 2, 3, 4 etc... but the board only has gme1 and 2 then pixel1 and pixel2 and then 4 audio sockets. All my other games only have two gme chips.

GME1 - U13 GME2 - U36 GME3 - U14 GME4 - U37 Title: Re: My First I-Game with 4 GME Chips Post by: jdkmunch on September 27, 2010, 06:53:04 PM Thanks- that's what I thought.
I still can't get it to boot. Maybe it's because I'm using the adapter board on a 044 platform. Title: Re: My First I-Game with 4 GME Chips Post by: CaptainHappy on September 27, 2010, 07:07:14 PM Maybe the reference designators (Uxx) do not match directly on the 3902 and the legacy adapter board. I will look when I am at my machine later. From memory though I think that it goes like below, but that needs to be verified.
GME1 - GME1 GME2 - GME2 GME3 - PXL1 GME4 - PXL2 Please post the Program Numbers of your chips and simms, and maybe a Picture of your 044 MPU board... It may be possible that you have "International" software, and a US MPU???

I haven't graduated to the big league yet (044) :25- What the Capt says though.
Title: Re: My First I-Game with 4 GME Chips Post by: Karaoke Mike on September 27, 2010, 07:15:29 PM Do you have the boot eprom on the daughter board? Is the game american or international? International only works on the international board and not the american.
Attached list of game firmware Title: Re: My First I-Game with 4 GME Chips Post by: jdkmunch on September 27, 2010, 07:17:59 PM The gme chips are G0002042.

Wih Base I0001299 I will ask a friend, just in case what are the SIMM numbers? Cxxxxxxx? Title: Re: My First I-Game with 4 GME Chips Post by: jdkmunch on September 27, 2010, 07:26:45 PM C0001073
Title: Re: My First I-Game with 4 GME Chips Post by: jdkmunch on September 27, 2010, 07:27:34 PM I just put hex back in the adapter board and it booted right up.
Title: Re: My First I-Game with 4 GME Chips Post by: Karaoke Mike on September 27, 2010, 07:34:59 PM Not to be a smart *** But all the dips on the simms are in the correct positions? The eproms are not corrupt? They were the correct numbers for the game as checked in the attachment I uploaded.
Title: Re: My First I-Game with 4 GME Chips Post by: jdkmunch on September 27, 2010, 07:41:17 PM Actually that's a really good question about the dip switches. Does anyone know what they are supposed to be?
I purchased anti-static sleeves and they fit around the simms snug - A dip may have been changed going into the bag. Title: Re: My First I-Game with 4 GME Chips Post by: jdkmunch on September 27, 2010, 07:43:09 PM Are the dip switches the same for all games?
Title: Re: My First I-Game with 4 GME Chips Post by: Karaoke Mike on September 27, 2010, 07:46:56 PM Yes they are the same on as each games 1,2,3,4,5. So just check them against hexbraker.
Title: Re: My First I-Game with 4 GME Chips Post by: jdkmunch on September 27, 2010, 07:55:38 PM I just checked the dips and they are all good
Title: Re: My First I-Game with 4 GME Chips Post by: idesign on September 27, 2010, 08:33:59 PM On the 044 legacy adapter board you use GAME 1(GME1) and GAME 2 (GME2), and SS/PIXEL1 (GME3) and SS/PIXEL2 (GME4).
Title: Re: My First I-Game with 4 GME Chips Post by: thomas883 on October 28, 2011, 07:23:44 AM Sorry to bump a year old post, but when a game has 4 GME chips, does it still have c chips in CG1 and CG2?
