Hey Wolf, mind adding this 403 guide to your well done FAQ smile.gif credit for the first translation goes to shfta, I just updated with my experience and how to get to the menu with the IC Card Restoration option. smile.gif

Okay me and my friend experienced this 403 during renewing last night. The directions given on the first page of this thread are correct but missing one thing. Here's the true way of doing this process to make sure you don't lose your data.

1. During the 403 error message, open up the coin slot door and press the test button, during this time it looks like the game is reseting its self but it actually loads the test menu.
2. During the test menu, select the GAME TEST option.
3. The game now will boot once again into the game test menu. At this point, you will see the Select IC Card Restoration option.
4. Go ahead and select the IC Card Restoration option.
5. Choose the Access code (the one on the back of card)
If is not there...you data is gone, when I did this myself, I noticed that there was more then just one access code, please make sure you verify the correct code on the back of your card.
6. After you found the code, select restore and press the test button
7. Insert you expired ID card
8. The Machine will say Finished Normally
9. Take your card out, exit the game test menu, then you will be brought back to the test menu that you first started with. Exit that and the game will reboot normally
10. Renew your card again, and after 2 minutes of renew time, you will have a brand new card with another 150 plays on it.

Salamat!

actually i think can for id4. caues you guy know when error right, and the card can't be use anymore.

step1- usually can restore back the card data by setting the machine
step2- put card back to the machine
step3- insert it in to rewrite again right.

so i was thinking when you rewrite successfully. but you tell the people that working in the arcade that your data error.[of course lie] then ask them set back the thing den again go rewrite. then MAYBE YOU CAN CLONE A CARD.

anyway that what i think. but so far i still haven't try. so if anyone have testes it out can leave a msg behind if it success. laugh.gif

You cant. Once you restore the data, your data is no longer inside the machine. I tried this scenario. I actually did an error 403 on purpose so I can have my data in the machine. Your expired card will be ejected and the data will be saved in the machine. BUT YOUR DATA IS NO LONGER IN THE CARD. Its in the machine. And once you restore your data, YOUR DATA WILL NO LONGER BE IN THE MACHINE but back in the card. Do you guys understand?

n 1 more thing wolf, today i got e 403 error. n i tried getting e technician to use a new card to restore my old data.

but e machine rejects e new card as e card code as found on e back of e expired card doesn't match.

so it's safe to presume tat cards cloning in v4 is quite impossible.

Lets put it this way for the data flow during a card renew process.

1. Data gets taken from the old card and stored temporarily on the machines, ready to be transferred to the new card.
2. Ejects old card with 'expired' on it
3. Attempts to put the data on the new card but fails and displays error 403
4. Tech manually puts the data on the new card, by various methods including rebooting the arcade machine itself
5. Data gets transferred successfully and you get ur new card.

Successful data transfer is all the above except 3 and 4.

The data is only needed to be stored temporarily and not long lasting where you can get CKF's data when he has done a card renewal so they do not and did not intended for a large hard drive to store all the info.

I wanted to try it but it cant be done. The card reader isnt the same. You barely have space to reach in and pull out the card. And to pull it, you have to push it back towards the eject slot.

Renewing basically has this procedure.

- You insert the card to be renewed.
- The machine "takes" the data (it will no longer be on the card) and spits out the expired card. The data will still be on the machine so in case the error 403 will occur or in case of power failure, the machine can store up to 5 data.
- When everything is going smoothly. It takes a blank card and writes the data it saved onto it. When it writes the data to the card, it transfers the data and will no longer have it saved on its memory so you cant clone it that way.

To clone back in Ver3, you have to yank the card while its inspecting at the proper timing. You cant do that with Ver4 because if you yank the card, its instant error. But with ver3 it will still be inspecting. (NOTE: For those who know how to clone in ver3, in IDAS4 the machine asks you to pay the credits first even before the renewal takes place. So you should know that the process we used back in ver3 cant be done. wink2.gif )

so if you re insert the card will the error message stay up?
not much point really even answering that because the 2nd part of your post proves that duping cant be done

I'll still answer it. If you insert the same card, the error will disappear. Insert another card and the error will still be there.

Errr no. Its not the same as wangan cloning. One major difference is that you have to have the card reader open to facilitate a dupe in ver3. In wangan you just need tape.
