Hi all!
Joined to club this last summer. Fun game! Say, I installed updated roms on my MPU and unfortunately my DMD went wacko. Can play a full game but before I start digging into this deeper, has anyone else had this issue? Am I missing something simple?

Thanks aeneas ! I’ve reseated the cables several times with no avail. I’m going to pull the DMD and check and see if it works in a different machine. Just thought I’d start by asking the club to see if anyone else has had this issue on SC. Thanks again!
Quoted from Babysha:did you try reverse the cable ? red line on opposite side on both sides? if something change it's certainly the cable
Thanks for the guidance! Not a ribbon cable issue unfortunately. Dmd tests out fine in another machine and so does the ribbon cable. I installed the 1.8N roms on the MPU but left the original sound roms on the A/V board. I know on some machines if these don’t match it can cause problems, but I’m not finding any evidence of that for WPC95.
Quoted from Sonic:What happens when you put the old ROM back in?
So that’s what’s interesting, It doesn’t boot at all! The closest example of this issue I’ve found on here is from this thread, which suggests that it’s possibly a video ram issue?
Quoted from marioparty34:I am all for learning. Maybe my secret Santa can send me some crappy boards to work on. I have already ordered a better DMM as the one I have is really cheap. I also need to get a better soldering iron as well. Any recommendations?
I’m a newb to board work and this is what I currently have with. Solder sucker is definitely worth the investment.
