Received an update from Rottendog. They have a local BK machine that they are using to troubleshoot the problems with the new board. Stay tuned.

I also have a rottendog in my BK and have the exact same issues. What a bummer.
No sound, ball won't advance after draining.

Thanks for the update on this, patiently waiting for Rottendog to finally figure out the Black Knight issues they seem to keep having.

BUMP. I reached out to RottenDog last week and did not hear back. It usually takes 2 or 3 attempts to get a response, so I'll try again next week.
At this point, I am going to suggest putting in a version 2 board and deal with the misc issues until the version 3+ system is working. I dunno
Update
latest news is that RottenDog is going to drop support for MPU327-3 on System 7 games. The plan is to re-run the MPU327-2 board and release it as MPU327-4. I dont know if that means we get System 7 support again, but with misc erroneous issues on Black Knight (similar to version 2 board)... but with a better sourced chip that was one of the issues with maintenance on the rev2 boards.
I dont know time frame obviously, so inquire with RottenDog if you have a Rev3 board and hold on to your receipts

Thanks for the update, man that's a bummer. I'm going to assume this will take a long time before this is fixed. I'm gonna see if I can send my board back and just have my original boards repaired.

I swapped out a Rottendog board from my Blackout. It works in my BK and the faulty board works well in the Blackout. Once the new board is released I will send it back.
Parts suppliers like k’s Arcade are stating that system 7 games are not supported.
Thanks for the update.
