Megatouch Merit Security Player Key Force Ion Maxx Touchscreen Bar Video Game

Description: One security key, player key, or operator key for the Megatouch system and software year you choose from the dropdown menus above. If desired, see our other eBay listings for software and hard-drive's to match to your key(s)! The same key works with both software editions released the same year. Keys and software are not interchangeable between Maxx, Force, and ION, and attempting to use what was designed for one in another won't work or may permanently damage your game. ION player keys record your scores and MyMerit data and allow you to bring it to other machines. ION operator keys allow access to machine setup without having to open the cabinet to get to the setup button. Please be sure to choose the correct key for your machine, and contact us with questions! It's important to understand that these games are computers, and at 10 or 20+ years old after a hard life in public making money, they will eventually develop various problems. In our experience, a key failure error message is caused by the wrong choice of key, a bad connection, or something other than the key itself being non-working. A dead key is possible or maybe even probable in years ahead, but we have only very rarely encountered one. We have many other Megatouch parts not necessarily listed on ebay. Please don't hesitate to contact us with questions! Best of luck! :) Note: Force 2003.5 software installed on any generic hard-drive and used with a Force 2003 key will appear as Maxx Ruby2 on Force machines! Force editions from 2002 to 2005 will do something similar if the hard-drive isn't original from Merit, but as they age and fail, that will be harder and harder to find. Tips!: Keep EVO heat sinks and airways clean and all fans spinning at top speed! (Lower fans blow upward, top fans blow out. If any doubt at all, replace fans with new ones.) Renew CPU heatsink compound if you're handy with that sort of thing. Be meticulous about layout of internal wiring and connectors so when you close the monitor cabinet, the electronics aren't being crushed nor interfering with fans. Replace CPU fan if self-test speed reports less than 3500rpm. Confirm that power supply voltages are correct, and if the power supply gets very hot, replace with one rated for 250 to 300Watts or more, which runs cooler and helps all components last longer. Watch for bulging tops on failing can-shaped electrolytic capacitors, but don't replace them yourself unless you have significant soldering experience. If game does nothing at all when switched on, possibly just dead button cell CMOS battery on motherboard. Read about jumper-starting ATX power supplies (or write me), gently replace battery, connect a keyboard to the game's motherboard, startup with delete button pressed, set Fail-Safe Defaults, then set Optimized Defaults, set BIOS date and time, disable any boot device other than ATAPI CD and IDE, set to Power-On after power failure. Exit saving changes. On Midway Infinity, no jumper-startup needed, just replace CMOS battery, press F1 or F2 at start-up, set time & date, set to Power-On after power failure, disable floppy A drive and set IDE as first and only boot device. Exit saving changes.
