HV section of the WPC-95 A/V board was rebuild and I have all tensions ok on the DMD, -116V; -104V; +5V; +12V and +65V all good. The DMD was tested on another machine and works without any problem. The machine starts the game, I can hear the sound and play normally but nothing is showing on display. Anyone have some tips? If need any more information, just let me know.

My mid 90's pins are suddenly getting all sorts of cold solder joints and in places not directly 'in the line of fire'. While it wasn't surprising in the saucer board on an AFM, it was on some driver boards components (non connector) on a TOM

I'm having a similar problem on my Medieval Madness. Did you ever find what the problem on the CPU was?
