Other than downright abuse, HEAT causes the most problems in these games, especially in tightly-packed Megatouch EVO's. HEAT also accelerates aging including the dreaded and inevitable electrolytic capacitor "jiffy-pop". If you want your machine to last as long as possible, the airways, heatsinks, and fans have to be kept clean, scrubbed bright, and fans have to be replaced well-BEFORE they grind to a complete stop (3500rpm is one standard minimum.) A wise-old life-long game operator once told me, "Replace the fans and power supply every 3 years, and your Megatouch will last forever!" Of course, he was talking about games running all day everyday in commercial use, so it may only need to be done once every decade or more after transitioning to home-use. We have many other Megatouch parts not necessarily listed on ebay. Please don't hesitate to contact us with questions! Best of luck! :)
Megatouch Tips!: Keep EVO heat sinks and airways clean and all fans spinning at top speed! (Aim lowest fans to blow in and upward, top fans to blow up and out. If any doubt at all, replace fans with new ones.) Renew CPU heatsink compound if you're handy with that sort of thing. Be meticulous about layout of internal wiring and connectors so when you close the cabinet, the electronics aren't being crushed nor interfering with fans. Replace CPU fan if self-test speed reports less than 3500rpm. Confirm that power supply voltages are correct, and if the power supply gets very hot, replace with one rated for 250 to 300Watts or more, which runs cooler and helps all components last longer. Watch for bulging tops on failing can-shaped electrolytic capacitors, but don't replace them yourself unless you have significant soldering experience. If game does nothing at all when switched on, possibly just dead button cell CMOS battery on motherboard. Read about jumper-starting ATX power supplies (or write me), gently replace battery, connect a keyboard to the game's motherboard, startup with delete button or F2 pressed, set Fail-Safe Defaults, then set Optimized Defaults, set BIOS date and time, disable any boot device other than ATAPI CD and HDD, set to Power-On after power failure. Exit saving changes. On Midway Infinity, no jumper-startup needed, just replace CMOS battery, press F1 or F2 at start-up, set time & date, set to Power-On after power failure, disable floppy A drive and set IDE/HDD as first and only boot device. Exit saving changes.
