Sega model 3 question
hi, i bought a sega model 3 motherboard with virtua striker 2 99 rom board. I am using a jamma converter and i have a few issues. Everything powers up properly , all the buttons work however when it is time to play the game you can only see the clouds and score board it is really weird. I am not sure if its the rom board or video board which are at fault, does anyone have any ideas ?

Try accessing the service menu and check the hardware and ROMS. Delete the system configuration and reconfigure it. Failing that, do a manual inspection on the board for any gurnt out/eaten traces, dead caps or blown ICs.
This sounds like your video board is defective, which is quite common for Model 3 boards unfortunately.
This results in only 2d images being shown, and all 3d images not showing or showing as weird artifacts.
Very common problem with Model 3 systems.
Best bet is to source a model 3 video board, as these are near impossible to repair.
