<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <FONT COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial">When you power up it just sits there doing nothing for about 5 minutes. Then all of a sudden it performs the self test that it should on power up.</FONT></P>

<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <FONT COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial">If you then power off and power on - there is no delay in the test running. The boardset comes up as it should.</FONT><FONT FACE="Arial"> </FONT></P>

<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <FONT COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial">Does anyone else's Berzerk work like this? Long delay in startup.</FONT><FONT FACE="Arial"> </FONT>

<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <FONT COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial">The games has a 'valid power' circuit on it and I'm wondering if there is anything in the PS that would cause that delay. It's only a couple of bridge retifiers, 5600uf caps and voltage regulators.</FONT><FONT FACE="Arial"> </FONT></P>

<P>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <FONT COLOR="#0000FF" FACE="Arial">Power is actually there at power up - the boardset just doesn't think it's 'valid'.</FONT><FONT FACE="Arial"> </FONT>
