I've been suspecting a possible incorrect RFA OS is uploaded to Triple Diamonds LCD computer
but there's not a thing I can do about it.

On top of that - because of my poor lists - I have no clue what would be the correct RFA for his game.
For those of you that want to know and to remind myself. -
the RFA gets installed the 1st time you set up a Vision computer...once the OS is installed,
the PCMCIA card should be removed.
It works the same way you would initially set up a home desktop computer.
Install the bios, the OS, then your optional programs and run all the updates.

We really need to see his LCD in video action to see if we can spot anything
in the boot up phase on the LCD screen.
There should be SOME info displayed before the RED SCREEN OF DEATH kills it.

There will be a message displayed on the RSOD, that's what we need.

I've already stated the procedure for updating the RFA...  arrow arrow arrow

Sorry brichter...I played 36 holes today...I'm dead! lol



okay...this is what I have...an RFA10025 installed.
It works with many different Vision games, SB's, SG's, BGM's, and ATA's.

I jut got some more info on Triple Diamond's Vision machine via PM...
Apparently it's NEVER worked and the previous owner couldn't get it to work either!
It's highy likely the RFA installed is wrong as well as the wrong set of SB /SG chips installed.
What SB and SG are installed Triple Diamond?
We need that info too...should be written on labels on your chips.

...Also what about the Jumper in back of the LCD that some people...

On the LCD computer board left of the memory stick there is a jumper labeled JP1.
You have to take the cover off of the back of the LCD computer to get at it.
Make sure the pins are jumped...there's probably nothing on the pins right now
so any computer board 2-pin shunt jumper will work.
Power up the machine and the LCD should display what it's doing when the machine is "Booting Up".

We need to see what RFA is installed...if any.

Well...that means they could be jumped already.
So...back to square one.
It's probably a corrupted bios and/or boot up sector on the LCD computer.
You need an RFA10025 OS CF flash PCMCIA card at least.

It will re-flash the computer with the OS and boot up lines.
I mentioned it about 30 Replies ago but was hoping that wasn't it.
You're starting from scratch now.

I will send you mine Triple Diamond but I need it back!
I don't have any spare CF cards!

PM me your mailing address and I will put it in the mail in the morning.

Can you try calling any vendors and see if they have any?

Is it actually on both pins, or just being stored there by being pushed on to only one of those pins?

Okay Eric,
I have an RFA10025 PCMCIA CF flash card in the mail on it's way out to you.
I hope re-flashing the computer with the RFA card will help it BOOT?

Well, I'm afraid you might have to bang your head on the wall one more time...  banghead face in palm

I went to the post office, found a USPS bubble wrap mailer and stuck the PCMCIA card in it & sealed it.
I filled out our addresses onto it and went up to the desk...$8.54?!?!?!? craps!  
Mail's not cheap anymore - we must be paying for their donuts behind the counter!!!!  hissy fit

I'll PM the Delivery Confirmation Number to you. You've Got Mail
The mail lady said it will be at your house Friday by 6:30... Walking The Dog


When you get it, when you're ready to install it - follow brichter's instructions on how to use it.
It's simple really...  yes  >>>

Insert my card into the side slot, keeps your game card installed at all times in the top slot .
Turn on the power, wait for the time/date message....wait a few more seconds then turn off the power
and remove my card from the side slot.
Always keep your game card in the top slot.
Once you remove my card, turn on the power and you should
get past the MSVerify part of the Boot Up sequence.

Let's keep our fingers crossed and hope it's not a bad memory stick or computer.

I'm wondering if those SB0000229 and pair of SG000046 GME1&2 chips are the right ones?  Scratch Head
I have to do some research on those...  Sherlock Smiley
