Hyper Street Fighter 2
Question from Johnnie: Hi there, I was wondering if you can help me out in determining what is wrong with my game. When I turn on the game, it goes through the memory test with everything ok, and the game won’t load/boot up. Is this an easy fix or is the board bad? Please see the attached photo. Thanks, Johnnie

Response from Jonathan: Johnnie,
You might start off by making sure our power supply is putting out the correct voltage to the board. Instead of checking your voltage at the power supply, you might try turning off the game, unplugging your board from the cabinet, turning the game back on and testing your voltage at the harness. Since Street Fighter 2 is a JAMMA board, you should be able to the JAMMA pinouts sheet on our website in order to determine the voltage pins. Make sure you adjust your power supply if your voltage is too high or too low. This should ensure that you are getting the correct voltage to the board.
If you continue to have problems after checking/adjusting the voltage at the harness, you might check out our post on Inspecting An Arcade Board for some helpful tips on troubleshooting board issues. Other than that, you will probably need some additional equipment (such as an oscilloscope) and a lot of time to get the board working properly. At this point, you would probably be better off contacting one of the people under the Board (PCB) Repair & Component Sales heading on our resources page as these people specialize in board repair.
Hope that helps. Thank you for your question and good luck with your repair.
