Hi Chaps, hoping for a solution here...
Recently bought a Stern Spiderman which is running old (1.7) code.
Have tried to update code to 2.6 via USB stick today but the the game will not update. When I get to the stage of switching dip switch 8 to on and rebooting the game, the game just shows rebooting.... on DMD and hangs. If I turn off the game and back on again the DMD is blank. The game will not reset via the reset button until the dip switch 8 is put back to off (all the other dip switches are already set to off). The game still plays normally with the old code. I have not yet got to the stage of inserting the USB stick into the game, and I have updated several SAM games without problems in the past.
I have tried removing the Bootflash ROM (U9) and replacing it, all pins on the ROM are inserted correctly.
I suspect the Bootflash Rom (U9) is faulty. Do I now need a new Bootflash ROM, or can the ROM to be reflashed? Where will I be able to find a new ROM, or somewhere to reflash it? I can't see anything on the UK parts sites.
Thanks in advance, Keith
