Can I test this without CF

I have this ,
Looking to move it on.
I can power it up
- I’m looking to test it if that’s possible without a CF card ?

Offers welcome if any ones interested in this

i think those have a sort-of bios that loads the card - so plug it in and see if you get a picture.
before you do - see if that socket next to the battery-ram is supposed to be empty

👍 yeh
Looks same real time clock
As the Konami viper hardware

Thats a Konami System 573 but its just the main PCB, there are lots more parts that should be attached to it.

The missing chip next to the timekeeper RAM is the game specific Boot Rom and the games load from CD-ROM.

No Idea how you test it though, appears to be Playstation based hardware.

What goes in the cf reader then ?
Didn’t I send cf it to you like a year or so ago ?

I think the card slot is used for data storage, was talking to a guy at arcade club a few weeks ago who is into all the Dance machines and they were talking about those PCMCIA cards being pricey as they are starting to fail and no one has come up with a replacement solution yet and there appears to be a lot of the DDR machines that use System573. Not sure of its use but read they are only about 32MB and I think they store user data.

And no you havent sent me any CF cards or anything related.

Must have been another member
I had the cf card for this and
Gti club.

Right cool
I guess it would record a players moves /score..
Quite something watching good players on one of the DDR games..
Very energetic.

So no Ron chip ..
Will be interesting just to see what happens when I hook it up.

Good spare bottom motherboard
For a DDR machine out there in the wild somewhere ..

Are you sure it was GTI Club, that appears to be Jamma PCB with ROMS and not System573, there is GTI Club2 and Variants on PC Card but they are on Viper and not System573.
