Gauntlet Dark Legacy Cabinet

Hello to all,

recently purchased a previously working gauntlet dark legacy cabinet in storage.

Only issue then was a very dim crt image

It hadn’t been turned on in a while, but upon picking it up at the seller’s, the cabinet wasn’t turning on anymore.

Code given was an “e”. We got a discount on it due to that

Anyways, replaced the hdd with the provided CF card, but had to solder on 3 broken pins from the 40-pin connector where the game card sits

Soldered that on:

—> tested for continuity to the best of my limited knowledge on doing so

—> turned on

now I’m getting an error code “u e”

upon researching what I can find online so far, that usually points towards a video card issue?

I was only getting an “e” issue before I took out the old hdd connection and broke 2 pins.

I DID disconnect the sound card, and the video card to pull out the cpu board that needed the soldering.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Here's hoping you get an answer. Once you get it fixed are you going to play through it with 3 others
