Alright so I got my hands on a working Nintendo Vs. Cab. Got the monster into my house and set it up. Plug it in, turn it on, going great. Playing a little bit of excite bike, 20 seconds in, my game resets out of no where, and now it is stuck on reset. Both games just keep reseting on each monitor. Can anyone help me with this, I can provide pictures if needed, but I don't know where to start...

Alright, though I really don't know where I will be touching, though I do have a multi-meter. Lol, my electronics have always been wing it after thinking about it for a bit, because of this I have killed 2.5 super-nintendos out of 10 due to not being grounded. Now because of the fact I am dealing with deadly amounts of electricity, I want to be safe, lol. Thanks for the quick response. I'll give it a go tomorrow.

If the game was working before, I'd reseat the cards. On Nintendo Vs. cabinets, the games are stored on cards or chips. When moving these beasts those cards tend to come dislodged. Reseating them may fix the problem.

Hoorah, I think simply changing these AA batteries on the board did good, but it could of been the reseating of the excite bike main chip, or the 5th time around for the wires, either way, it is working! Thanks for the help!
Time to take stock:
Nintendo VS. dual arcade cab
Castlevania chipset with marquee
Excitebike chipset
Golf chipset
x2 vs. Baseball chipset with marquee
x2 vs. Tennis chipset with marquee
For a grand total of $94. Thanks Drexel!
(Hopefully I get that room cleaned up a bit more)
