The CPU board is not resetting, it's stuck in some sort of boot loop. The first boot self-test completes OK, but when I access the diagnostic menus and exit, it gets stuck in this boot loop. CPU board is loaded with Whitewater LH-6 ROM (8Mb EPROM).

I've tried replacing the ROM (WPC test fixture ROM boots fine, but White Water L-5 ROM doesn't even try to boot), RAM, CPU, and re-seated the ASIC chip.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Burn a new ROM, make sure the ROM size is correct for the size of the image you are burning.

I don’t have an image of the LH-6 ROM, tried two burns of L-5 and neither would boot, using correct 4Mb chips.

Give this one a shot ... looks like its an 8Mbit file
