PROBLEM
PROBLEM
Have a Atari Hard Drivin' that
will not load. Screen comes up
Download error, ASIC 16 error,
Generic error.Just had the board
in for repair, it worked for two
weeks then back to doing the
same thing.
If you have the following prob-
lems with the game, this is due
to an improper ROM revision on
the PCB.
THE
SYMPTOMS WOULD BE:
Have checked ALL voltages;
they are all within specs. I do not
know what the service shop re-
placed or repaired. Can any one
help.
* Random freezing
SOLlITION
* 500/o of the G RO Ms test bad
Most problems of this type of
board are bad connections. Just
take all the boards out and reseat
all socketed parts and headers.
Check for bad soldering on these
boards as well. My bet is that'll
cure your intermittents.
The new version is the 1.65. Any
older revisions would need to be
updated. Please contact your lo-
cal distributor for more informa-
tion and availability .
* Screen fogging
* Bad video RAM testing
