Hi gang, I am at the end of ideas and my patience with my SWE1 and Pinbox system...
I built a sweet Pinbox system with an Intel Micro ATX, Core2-Duo 2.33MHz, 2G RAM, 80G HDD, w/onboard VGA, audio, and parallel.
The Pinbox software runs fine, auto detects the PF and runs all functions of the game perfectly, except for the lighting.
The lights are all dimmer than normal and flicker non-stop. The PF is brand new and still has the incandescent bulbs. I have tried the timing F-keys and the system responds and the relay clicks, but nothing stops the dim flicker. I have tried all parallel port modes, I have added bigger ferrites, I have redundant grounds, I have tried 3 different (yet similar) motherboards & CPU's, nothing makes any difference.

I have the original computer, and the lights work correctly with it, so it has to be something with this PC setup, PLEASE help??

Maybe its the install software I used?
Maybe someone running a similar hardware setup to mine, would sell me a clone of their HDD on a disk?
