Quoted from drewski28:

Any reason why the code update would put the system into Spanish? Installing 1.07 and I've plugged in different USBs and they all start the system update in Spanish.

Did you let it complete? Was it still in Spanish after the reboot? Mine displayed a few lines in a foreign language (I didn't look carefully enough to see if it was Spanish or something else) but once the update finished and I rebooted it, all was back to English again.

Quoted from drewski28:

When I start the game up to do the new software it comes up automatically in Spanish. Saw the same on my Dads Batman 66 Premium. The other issue im having is the software update freezing. I checked and my USB is definitely formatted right and I've tried both USB slots.

Probably just an oddity with the old 1.06 software then. I thought it odd too but didn't give it another thought after the update completed.

Sounds to me like corruption on the USB stick. I had this happen on Aerosmith when I updated to 1.06 - I ended up doing a full format (FAT32) and re-unzipping the download, first to my hard drive and then copied from the hard drive to the USB. It did a full update because the previous one was interrupted, so it took a lot longer to do but it did complete. I used the same stick (I did not need to reformat it this time) to go to 1.07 and didn't have any problems.

I know you said you know your USB stick is formatted right, but is it freshly formatted?

Quoted from drewski28:

So the weirdest thing, I never successfully completed to 1.07 update to the point where it says "update successful...". But after my 7th attempt at updating I just restarted the game and it did the node update followed by running the game and showing on 1.07. Should I proceed as normal or keep trying until I get to that final screen?

Not sure. I'm guessing the update is incomplete but I don't know. I'd take another look at the readme file and see if all the updates are there (see if the new settings are present and if they actually do anything), play a few games and nothing seems corrupted, just call it good. I'm torn between "it probably isn't correct" and "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".

Quoted from JOESCHALL:

Left scoop is not always giving the lit award that it should. Sometimes it has to be hit several times before the award is given. Checked all connectors on the node board underneath and they're all seated. Tech alert shows no node board problems. Anyone else having this same issue or have any ideas?

Check the switch, with a ball, in switch test. It is probably activating when the ball first hits it but once the ball settles it is no longer activated. When this happens, the game just spits the ball back out without giving a reward. The switch needs to be activated when the ball is settled. Make sure the screws that mount the switch are tight. If the screws are tight, you may be able to get it to work better by repeatedly activating the switch manually, but ultimately you'll probably need to replace the switch. Adjusting the switch so it's more (or less!) sensitive may help too.

This is a pretty common problem on any game with a saucer it seems.
