Hallo liebe Schachcomputerfreunde,
Wissen sie ob das Netzteil von Prodigy Destiny funktioniert auch mit die Mega 4 mit Morphy Module? Ich kaufte ein Mega 4 / Morphy ohne Netzteil und ich kann keine Information finden.
Vielen Danke,

Hi Andres

I think that the answer to your question is yes. I have a Sandy (German) Destiny power supply working with a GGM (Great Game Machine) at the moment. All my Applied Concepts/Destiny adapters seem to have different outputs, but the jack (connector) is the same. The original GGM adaptor would probably have been 10V 830mA.

It is generally thought that the Mega-4 was never released for sale by Destiny. There are however GGMs that have been upgraded to run at 4 MHz which involves a replacement PCB in the program modules and replacement chips etc in the chess computer. The modifications are carried out by a guy from Birmingham, UK. This is his website - http://www.great-game-machine.com/

May I ask if your Mega-4 has any features which distinguish it from a GGM, such as this one - http://www.chesscomputeruk.com/html/...__steinit.html

All the best

Thank you very much Mike for the fast answer (in English, appreciated!) and valuable links. I haven't received the MGM yet from the ebay seller, but I think it is the basic 2MHz version with the Capablanca and Gruenfeld modules. I'll let you know when I get it.
Thanks again!
Andres
