IGT G23 Screen Stuck on Game Selection screen

[buzzharley]

I recently had to replace all my batteries on the mother board after help from people on this forum which I truly appreciate.  After doing that I had to go back in and enable all the games again which I did, I thought.  After doing this I got the "Progressive Tilt" error so I went in and disabled the games with progressive options.   Then after restarting the system it brought me to Cleopatra and the only button that worked was the "More Games" button.  Once I click on that it takes me to the game selection screen but none of the buttons work on this screen so I can't go anywhere or do anything.   I ran the calibration screen and that seems to work just fine and the touch screen worked just fine to enable all the games.  Does anyone have an ideas what I need to do or what I did wrong?   Could I possibly have too many games enabled so it's freezing?  Thanks in advance for any ideas or help!    Happy 4th to everyone!

Close all doors.

Hello Sixcard, doors are all closed and it’s still doing the same.  I decided I was going to disable all the games and just try to enable one to see if it would work.  However now it won’t let me enable any games.   When I go into a game the enable option doesn’t let me push it.  After putting in the new batteries should I have reset the system some how?  Should I remove all the games and try to add them back on and if so is there a tutorial on how to do that?  Thanks

Is your ekey inserted into one of the secure USB ports? Door C, F & T are showing open. C & F should be open to use the ekey so those are normal at the time.

Hello RB,
   Thanks so much for the reply.  The T door was showing open.  I'm so new I didn't even know that it showed the open door/latches on the top of the screen.  When I read your reply I was like how the heck does he know what doors are open, lol!   I now have the games working but the 3D reels are not displaying unless they are in a winning row.   What I could find from my research is that possibly a loose monitor cable but everything seems tight and connected.   Does anyone have any idea or is there a setting that I need to enable the 3d reels?   Thanks again for all your help!

I'm not sure but I think that particular game won't work with your monitor.
You need one that's called an MLD (Multi-Layered Display).
I think the one you have is just a plain single LCD (Liquid Crystal Display).
Could you show use a good photo of the back of your main display?
Like a picture showing all of the connections?
From there, we'll be able to tell you more.

Thanks, the games worked before I replaced the batteries so I know they work with the monitor.  When I opened it to get pictures the two bottom fans weren’t spinning.  Once I tapped on them the higher one started going again but the bottom one spinned then stopped again.  I doubt this is the issue but wanted to mention it.  Please let me know if you need better pics.   Thanks for your help!

Good pics.
You have the right MLD monitor.
I'd clean the contacts on the video card with some contact cleaner or a white eraser.
It's the vertical circuit board inserted into the socket on the brain box main MPU board the black VGA cable is plugged into.
Hopefully it's just dirty contacts or a loose card.
Worse case, one of the A/D boards for the LCD died.
They use one board for each LCD panel.
Located inside the panel cover on the back of the MLD.
I flip the connectors between the AD boards to see which one is out.
Lotta places sell the A/D boards.
Here's what they look like for example...>>>
