SOLUTION
Mortal Kombat 3 has had many
EPROM updates because of
glitches in the program.
Version 1.0 had reset and coin
problems. Version two was devel-
oped to resolve these problems
ut created another.
*
As this happens, the player will
hold down the start buttons and
free credits will appear on the
screen.
At the same time what you had
adjusted in factor settings will go
to 50 cents to start, one to con-
tinue and your bookkeeping as
well gets reset to zero.
~
all your Williams Distributor
....nd get version 2.1 to resolve this
problem. See Illustration for
Eprom placement.

SYMPTOM
This is the symptom: You play
the game to the end and the
menu will scroll down. At the end
of the menu two warriors will
come out and face each other and
pose as if they were going to fight.
