Monaco GP video board fixed

Getting board of Monaco GP, but need a full set plus spares for Replay. This one was not too bad a 7427, a 7430 and a 7432 and time to move on to the next


Another Moanco GP scoreboard fix.

Highscore table was completely missing on this one. 13 bad chips replaced and it is fully working


Nasty Monaco GP scoreboard fix

I didnt think I would ever find this one.... An input to a 74151 on the scoreboard was sinking too much current and causing a 74191 on another board to miss-count. Damn that was a tricky one and no form of logic testing was helping.

Monaco GP Test Rig

Here is the finished article.

I took an old rusty cage


Cleaned it up


Then drilled it to mount the memory board and score board onto the side of the cage.

I wired up a Monaco GP to Jamma harness and added my custom video converter

Video converter

Just made this out of parts I had to hand to convert Monaco GP video signals into something my test bench monitor can make use of
