well i got this cabinet built by this guy he came to my house and he built it.. it was working find when u play one player but when u play 2players it keeps beeping and freezing and beeping making it impossible to play , i called the guy that built this for me but he said he has no idea what to do , now he won't even answer calls.. i have a arcade guy that said my problem is my ram , and another guy saying it is my processor,, but both of them guys never had a cabinet with hyper spin , so if there is some one out there with a solution please guide me ,,,

yeah the guy is no where to be found i went to his house n he is no longer there so now I'm stuck with this cabinet i figured out how to map controls and i figured out how to play a lot of games by searching through the treads , but this thanksgiving i had some friends over and we could not play 2 players i was really bummed out about that

yes the computer was a buddy of mines he is a tech at qualcom , so he gave me this pc the controls are custom happy controls i had to order this pcbs or cpm controller for the pc to be able to recognize buttons .. man if u can help me out i would be willing to pay.. i need some one that knows how to work these cabinets , i want to buy light guns and be able to play all games but now I'm in the dark,, me and my son just play 1 player at a time it really is a bummer

no there are no issues the same game will play fine it only happens when 2 players are pressing buttons to many times it sound like when you press keyboard to make times n it just freezes and beep when i let controllers go and no one presses it will eventually go back to normal.. i pm you my number did u get it ??

no i have no idea which one i have , this guy that set up my cabinet said my processor was to slow so I'm suppose to go buy a motherboard and cpu this monday but he has no idea what he is doing,, so i don't want to buy stiff and problem still happens .. I'm just going to wait for you to come by and see it before i buy anything

i don't want to upgrade if i don't have to i would rather spend the money to fix the problem because if i upgrade and i still have the problem .. i would rather use that cash to figure out my machine right now all i really use is mame but it has almost every console out there with 1000s of games

some consoles are not working prop[erly.. like the pinball one it is really slow

Do the games work in MAME? THat's a pretty good starting point?

I may have missed it, but what is the control board? IPAC?

Any pictures?

Remember that Hyperspin is a glorified GUI frontend. The 2 pinball, Dreamcast, Naomi, PS2, graphic intense 'boards' will slow the CPU down. Oddly enough, the Virtual Pinball works fine outside of the Hyperspin! I'm running Windows XP and Hyperspin works fine. 2 - player is fine. It's gotta be the Hyperlaunch settings.

Do you have an adequate air flow, sounds like a heat issue, if your motherboard is making the beeps and freezing, either your cpu is working overtime when you add a second player or your ram is insufficient but airflow is a major factor. In my standup arcade I have 2 120mm fans on each side of the cab and a 200mm "exhaust" fan on the back and it's nice and chilly inside... probably should start there with heat/fan issues.
