Quoted from pacman11:

Looking for a display for my Star Wars, anyone have an old one laying around after replacing it with a colored one? PM me..

I just changed out my old Cherry DMD board for a color one. I was planning on putting it on eBay. What do you think would be a fair price?

Finally got my DESW back up and running after having all of the boards checked for some bizarre issues I was having. Ended up installing a new x-pin power supply board. Finally upgraded the game to Chad’s 1.07. Amazing. Here’s my high score after 4 days with the new ROM.

I am planning on listing the following items on eBay later this week:
(1) DE power supply board (recently inspected by Clive at Coin-Op Cauldron in Easley, SC); (2) Darth Vader plastic topper (great condition, no cracks); and (3) Original Cherry DMD, with heat shield (I just upgraded to ColorDMD). I also have a Pinsound Board on order (32 days, stuck in customs in Chicago). When that arrives I will be selling my old sound card and speakers.

Quoted from pudealee:

Just recently in attract mode, my machine will suddenly say “May the force be with you.” Sometimes it will repeat it immediately. I’ve owned this machine 20+ years and it has never done that before. Played a game recently and during the game got a random”May the force be with you,” and all of the game music sounds stopped (other game sounds still played). After the ball drains, the music comes on again. Any ideas what might be going on?
Posting this in the main DE group too.

I had the same problem, which progressively got worse, finally to the point that the only sound the machine would make was the stuttering “May the force . . . .” Eventually, the game would just shut down randomly during the middle of a ball. Seemed like the sound was resetting whenever the left flipper button was pressed. I had all of the electronic boards taken off and inspected. DMD would not work at all when they were re-installed. Swapped out a new X-pin power supply board and everything works like a champ again. I was able to isolate the problem to the smaller cable connecting power supply to the video driver board.

Just listed on eBay: DE power supply board, DE Star Wars sound board, original speakers and sub-woofer, Cherry DMD, and Plastic Darth Vader topper. Boards all recently inspected and serviced by Coin-op Cauldron in Easley, SC. Low starting prices, no reserves.

Flipper help needed. My left flipper has stopped working. I’ve replaced the coil and the switch, to no avail. This has exhausted my skills, which are literally trial and error. Any suggestions for further diagnosing and fixing the problem? I have a multi-meter, but don’t know all of the technical things to look for. Thanks, Dave
