    Default Is it me or are my machines fighting back

    So been re doing my arcade and I had my machines unhooked and unplugged for several weeks. Is it me but when you don't turn them on for a long time they seem to throw weird errors that force me to frame reset them. Maybe they are just pissed at me for not playing them for a bit or possibly some internal clock gets goofy. Has anyone else noticed this. After the reset they are fine but this is now the second time that they were off for extended time and threw strange codes. one threw a RAM error ????

    Mine do that too. Then I have to remember which button on the back I need to push to reset them. The Tom and Jerry I think has the button behind a little sliding door so it's easy to miss (or maybe that one is hidden down in the back, maybe it's the Avant Guarde that has the sliding door)

    Ha, I don't know for sure. I basically push every button I can find until it goes away. The buttons are in different places on the different machines I have, but I couldn't tell you what the button I push is supposed to do.

    Same. If I wait a week before powering on Transformers, it will request a hard code reset. Batman asks me to set an internal clock every time I turn it on...but not I just bypass it (let the machine think it is 2010 or whatever, hah!

    Powered on all 40 machines after about two weeks of non-use. The only ones that cried about RAM resets were:

    -Ultraman
    -Avengers
    -Kinnikuman

    What do they have in common? All Kyoto/OKAY.

    Not a big deal, but certainly a theme with the brand.
