Today I took one of them to location to install into a super bikes cab. I got them to the point where they were rebooting when looking for the IO Boards. On two of them I put in hard drives and installed F&F Super Bikes onto them. I went through and tested all the computers, removed all but 1 stick of memory, removed and replaced video cards, added the LPT cards, etc. I am going to run them with the case door off anyways.

I had to "mod" the parallel port cards to fit in the SFF PC case, but no big deal. I also ordered 4x PCI LPT port cards and 6x PNY 8400GS low profile video cards. Some had video cards, but I am not using them. They all came with 2x 2GB PC3 memory sticks. These are used obviously, but were tested as working without hdd before shipping. Ok, so I ordered 4x Dell Optiplex 580 SFF machines (these had a 3.2GHz AMD Athlon X2 which is beefier than the Optiplex 740). Super Bikes keys are parallel port? At least the ones I have are? Is there a usb version? I see that the super bikes change log says you can use an Optiplex 580 as well? But when you look at those computers there's no parallel port. and if something goes wrong I can just swap back to the other ssd. I guess the next thing I want to do is try reinstalling super bikes onto a different ssd? I wonder if these issues are all being caused by the hard drives/ssds? That I don't mind doing that on location because it's not careful hand work with no desk. I wonder if there's a page file that's being accessed by embedded xp? I feel like it did take longer to install onto the ssd and load from cold boot now, but it seems to be running stably. I then went ahead and reinstalled the game onto a small SSD. So I don't think the video card is the problem. So I took another look at my nicktoons nitro and none of the caps on the motherboard or video card looked bad? I started debugging by swapping to another video card I have and it was doing the same thing. I believe it does have the Y-cable but I could be wrong? My nicktoons nitros all have Dell ATI-102-A924 (B) Radeon X1300 256MB DDR PCI-E Video Card. The super bikes at the laundromat has some kind of nvidia card in it, i don't remember what it is. I just don't want to do it on location for obvious reasons.Ĭlick to expand.Thanks for posting the bios update. I'm not sure if I need it or not, but I do have extra dongles for both games, so getting some set up at my shop should hopefully not be a problem? after I swap them out, I might consider recapping the original motherboards at my shop. Get them working at my shop and then swap them out on location? I think what I want to do is order some more standard size 740s and get them built out fresh. From what the internet is telling me, I can use any size 740 as long as it fits in the cabinet. it should fit inside the super bikes no problem though. but those also don't fit inside nicktoons nitro cabinets.
another 740 4800+ SFF.įrom what I see, these are not as available to purchase as the desktop or regular size ones. that one I installed super bikes onto a computer that was previously a nicktoons nitro. I have another super bikes that I just put out in a pizza place. I'm not sure exactly what is in my super bikes that's on location, but I assume it's the same? I know it is also an SFF.
the one in the nicktoons nitro is a 4800+ and it's the SFF (small form factor). I have been doing research on the optiplex 740 and it seems like there are some sub variants. I have a feeling that this is an issue with caps on the motherboard? I really don't want to recap it. I went to go check on it and while I was looking at it, I saw the game error out. It was kind of strange, I was doing a burn in test and I've had them running for a couple days now. So I just got the same type of issue to happen on one of my nicktoons nitro cabinets.
