    I vote for just the AV board. It will be cheaper and I don't want to replace the driver board and CPU board if they are fine. If the AV board is bad, that's what I want to replace.

    Also, by this point in time the WPC system was pretty robust. I repair games every day. I've never had the need to replace a WPC-95 CPU or driver board. I've always been able to repair them. The AV board has a couple chips that are difficult to replace and are getting hard to find. The AV board is also more likely to have issues due to the heat from the HV section. The AV board is what's needed to be reproduced at this point.

    Quoted from Rdoyle1978:

    Stangbat, I assume you seen AV boards which are not repairable and must be replaced?

    Not yet. The ones I've repaired have had issues with the HV section or the sound section. But due to the design and the chips on the AV board that are difficult to find and replace, I'd like the option to have a replacement available. Especially when I have WPC-95 games on location that I need to keep running.

    Quoted from Ballypinball:

    We have blank boards and rare parts to suit

    Are they on your site? I couldn't find them. I'm up for a challenge.
