World Rally board 1
This board seams to have had a hard life a quick look over revealed eprom C23 missing and the corner broken off the PCB through the mounting hole near I22.
Started by cleaning up the damaged board corner and repairing a damaged track then burn a new eprom for C23.
Powering up showed some success well at least booted. Test screen showed test pattern but text was messed up and not readable in game. Background ok, text and car messed up. Sound consisted of just beeps and squawks.
More visual inspection revealed more damaged track this time between D17 and F17. Repairing these fixed the text and car graphics. Now for the sound suspecting the OKI Chip and or mask rom. I pulled the rom it verified ok.
The board was shelved at this point to get some data on the OKI chip and have a think about it. This payed off when I realised it was playing the correct sound track, just too fast with most of the notes missing. This ead to replacing the faulty 1Mhz ceramic resonator at C7.
Board now working.
Not a bad game lots of fun and even works 2 player with joysticks in a cocktail.

World Rally board 1

This board seams to have had a hard life a quick look over revealed eprom C23 missing and the corner broken off the PCB through the mounting hole near I22.

Started by cleaning up the damaged board corner and repairing a damaged track then burn a new eprom for C23.

Powering up showed some success well at least booted. Test screen showed test pattern but text was messed up and not readable in game. Background ok, text and car messed up. Sound consisted of just beeps and squawks.

More visual inspection revealed more damaged track this time between D17 and F17. Repairing these fixed the text and car graphics. Now for the sound suspecting the OKI Chip and or mask rom. I pulled the rom it verified ok.

The board was shelved at this point to get some data on the OKI chip and have a think about it. This payed off when I realised it was playing the correct sound track, just too fast with most of the notes missing. This ead to replacing the faulty 1Mhz ceramic resonator at C7.

Board now working.

Not a bad game lots of fun and even works 2 player with joysticks in a cocktail.

World Rally board 2

This board was possibly worse than the first and looked as if it had been used for a parts donor as the 74ls08 at F4, 74ls245s at B17 and B18, 6264 ram at C8, eproms C22 and C23 had been ripped out and none too carefully. Damaged tracks galore plus broken volume pot and a few squashed or damaged caps and worst of all the plastic cover over the suicide processor and battery was missing.

Definitely an ominous sign although the battery was still connected and was over 3 volts maybe worth a crack you never know.

Started by fitting sockets and repairing the damaged Pcb tracks, burn't new eproms for C22 ,C23 and replaced any other missing or damaged components.

When finished it all looked neat and tidy with very few visible jumper wires so far so good.

Power up looked promising test screen came up ok until I read the last line “COPROCESSOR NOT READY”. This indicates that the DS2005 secure processor has Suicided.

The game still coins up and starts seams to run ok until you hit something then the back ground graphics screw up and the game becomes unplayable and eventually locks up.

All is not lost after a lot of research and reading and thanks to the kind people at Gaelco for releasing the DS5002 code in recent times plus the Mame team for distributing it ( I thank you all very much ) it is now possible to reload suicided processors.
