I bought a KI "Flash Drive Kit" from ARCADESERVICES on eBay...
Basically, it's a combo that consists of new u98 ROM, IDE->Flash Disk adapter and a CF card w/ the KI hard drive data.
Remove your HD, plug in this beyotch and your game works like a charm!
My KI board was bought working, but it started to crap out on me a few months later.
I'll post results here once I get the kit & try it

Arcade shizzle should be indestructable, damn it.
Nah, not at all.
Killer Instinct is plagued by a crappy design, that's all. The Hard Drive dies after years of use because they're small, fragile laptop drives not meant for heavy usage
This "flash" kit uses a CF card, so there are no moving parts. The game becomes basically indestructible!

Super Cool.
I've seen vertical screen in a couple of astro's. Now in a Universal and that clinches it.
I hopefully will have my 3rd NAOMI coming soon for a dedicated Vertically mounted monitor in a UNIVERSAL cabinet.
The tought that went into the cabinet design to make the monitor capable of being mounted vertically or horizontally really was superb planning by the folks at SEGA.
Also after seeing that cab with the capcom panel make me cringe at the fact I sold my capcom panel for $40USD. You really did a sweet job with the button and joystick config on the capcom panel.
