Does anyone have the latest files for the superchexx Scoreboard they can send me?

I have 2 superchexx machines. One is the NHL version currently running NHL 1.2 in the scoreboard. This runs like a champ and works great.

My other pro machine is not doing so well. The SD cards are starting to corrupt. I get staticy looking video clips. Sound files seem to be file. So I know it is the SD cards in the scoreboard causing issues. One side is worse than the other. When I opened the scoreboard one has GEN 1.3 and the other is GEN 1.4.

Just curious if anyone has taken a download of the latest version of their files they want to share? I was going to overwrite NHL 1.2 on both corrupt SD cards, but thought I would check is someone has the most recent GEN files. Thanks in advance.

Above is a link to the directory of where you can download the files to re-create your SDCARD.
You must first prepare your SDCARD. Due to size differences, I suggest you use a 32GB card.

Format the card Fat32 using the lowest allocation possible.
Then unpack the rar's to the SDCARD.
Do not copy the rar over, this will not work.
Do not start copying, stop, change or delete any files, then resume copying.
The files must be written one after another with no alterations.
All three cards (one in the main board and one in each display).

Thanks! That is exactly what I needed. Downloading now, but this should do the trick.

I appreciate the instructions too. I'll order some 32GB micro SD's. I'll make a back-up set for my NHL version just in case too.

Thanks so much!

Just a couple of pro-tips for other newbies that need to do the same repair.

1) You only need one file. All 3 SD cards run the same file. My Superchexx had SD cards that were GEN 1.2, GEN 1.3 and GEN1.4. I thought each card needed to be different. They don't. Mine was bought used and Frankenstined together. Run all at GEN 1.5 or whatever you want.

2) micro SD card are very finicky in computer SD card slots. Always better to use a micr SD reader into USB.

I'm all fixed up now and glad to have things running 100%. I think after extended use the plug to the scoreclock can back out with vibration causing intermittent power that may may cause issues with the memory. Just a guess. Best to think of SD cards like VHS tapes. When you use them too much the quality gets shitty. Good to have back to its it fine form!

I am very new to this, I have a Super Chexx Pro Bubble Hockey. The machine is only a year old. I purchased it used.

It would light up and but not start, after contacting for support they told me to take a SD card out of the jumbotron and swap it with the main SD Board. The machine worked perfectly.

I then transported home and moved it into my basement, same issue as started above. I reseated the cards and swapped them around, nothing it working.

SD cards are all labeled 1.5. Which file should I be using? there are 3 or 4 in that links with 1.5. which one should I get My machine is Canada VS Russia.

Can I format the existing cards or do I need to buy new ones? A certain type?

I have some very sad kids right now, they were all pumped, this was a huge surprise for them, turned out to a huge flop.

I am not good with computers, so any added advice how to make the cards work would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Buy new SD cards. I'm not sure which type is best, but best bet is to matchwith the same size storage as the existing cards. Think of SD cards like old VHS tapes. Everytime they are read, they can deteriorate a little bit. I have mine on route. I've noticed every 2 or three years I need new cards. Just be sure to replace all 3 - two in the jumbotron and one inside the coindoor (on the main board). All 3 SD cards must have the same files on them. New SD cards and new programming you should be good as new.
