I need to replace the driver board in my Hollywood Heat - and preferably with a newer replacement rather then old school board. However, I can't seem to locate either Rottendog or Ni-Wumpf replacements. I asked Rottendog about them and they indicated that they don't expect to have any more in stock.

Anyone know of a source for a replacement? If not a Rottendog or Ni-Wumpf, I'd consider a known good and working original.

Quoted from wizzardz:

Ever?! That sucks. I saw the other day that Mad Amusements did not have them in stock, which is quite unusual for Mike. I figured the suppliers must have been lagging but if what you say is true that would be awful. Good luck!
BTW, why do you feel you need to replace the board? Is it FUBAR or are you stumped?

That's the impression I got. I asked if they expected new stock, and the answer was "No, sorry"

Got a reply from Ni-Wumpf and they are looking for a new manufacturer, so no boards there for at least awhile.

The existing board actually works. However, it is very toasty in parts and has had traces restored with solder. It likely should have been scrapped when it first burnt up, but I certainly don't want to have to mess with it as a variable while I'm also looking to retheme, adding new sound, doing ground fixes, etc.

I just checked and Steve Young has some system 80 driver boards. That is Pinball Resource just in case you are not aware who Steve is...not being jerk just making sure. Good luck.

Had Steve's page open as a plan B. My first choice was a Rottendog, but ended up getting the last Ni-Wumpf that K's Arcade had.
