All my games that I restart after a bad first ball work better now than when I got them...oh thats right I also worked on them to get em to work. I am not an EE but I bet the restarts...hundreds on my machines have not caused any problems...IMHO
And I don't get to play as much as I would like so I hate wasting time...I want to hit the advanced portions of the game to feed my crazed pinball needs
