It does seem to have a mind of its own lol
Ron seems to think maybe the memory card may be a option to try and change,but obviously getting hold of the parts is not so easy!
Hope can get it sorted somehow.

Yep I think the memory card has to be the next step.

Your ram could very well be kernackered.

Random
Access
Memory.

It's the bit where the machine stores info as it goes along - volume, running percentage, accounting info etc.
If you mean which chip it is then I haven't the faintest clue on these machines!
One for the Mecca methinks. :o ops:

Have you checked the % payout in the (extended) test routines? should tell you what its achieving.
Also have you changed the battery? or just checked it?
If it gives a mem reset alarm on a regular basis it'll be the battery CPC do em for about £5.

Global machines always run under there aiming % (to accommodate the dumps) but it shouldn't be too far off track.

If you do need a board pm me. (I assume you are referring to the eclipce MPU?)
