!! Important Information !! Please Read First
Follow the instructions below to determine which type of computer is installed in your cabinet.
DFI Computer
The DFI computer can easily be upgraded by any service technician, even one not familiar with computers.
The computer parts are easy to identify and require only a Phillips screwdriver to upgrade. If your
computer looks like the picture below, please continue with the rest of these instructions to upgrade the
hardware on your computer.

Graphite Computer
The Graphite computer is pictured below. These computers are more difficult to upgrade. This document
shows the upgrade procedure for a DFI computer. The steps are similar for a Graphite computer, but the
components are arranged differently, and you must remove the CD-ROM drive to change the memory
stick.
Some graphite computers have a CPU speed of less than 850 MHz. These computers require a CPU
upgrade. To determine the CPU speed of your Graphite computer, press the F2 key during boot up to enter
the BIOS screen. The CPU speed is displayed as "Processor Speed" on the default BIOS screen. Contact
your distributor or GLOBAL VR®Technical Support to arrange a CPU upgrade.
GLOBAL VR recommends sending Graphite computers to GLOBAL VR to be upgraded by a certified
technician. GLOBAL VR is not responsible for any damage done to your Graphite computer in the attempt
to perform the hardware upgrade on your own. Please contact your distributor or GLOBAL VR Technical
Support to arrange the upgrade.
When shipping the computer, always use plenty of padding and protection. GLOBAL VR recommends
shipping the computer in a box with three inches of foam padding on all sides. Do not return the game
dongles with the computer.

2. Turn the cabinet OFF and disconnect the AC power cord.
3. Remove the rear door from the cabinet.
4. Refer to Figure 1 or Figure 2, and disconnect all of the cables from the computer. There should be five
cables:
• AC Power Cable from Power Strip
• USB Cable from Happ UGCI board
• Video Cable from Monitor
• Audio Cable from Audio Amp
• Ethernet port from Power Plate (Used for Linking Cabinets)
5. Remove the four (4) wood screws that secure the computer-mounting brackets to the cabinet, as shown
below, and carefully lift the computer out of the cabinet.

Computer Hardware Upgrade
1. Remove the two screws holding the computer cover on, as shown by the circles below. Pull the cover
back 1/4 inch (1), and then pivot it outward (2), as shown in the picture below.
2. Remove the COM 2 serial port from the back of the computer. Use a #2 Philips screwdriver to remove
the screw that holds the port in place (1), and unplug the cable from the motherboard (2).

3. Locate the 128 MB memory stick installed in the computer, as shown by the circle below. Press the
tabs outward (open) to unlock the memory stick from the motherboard, as shown by the arrows in the
picture below, and then gently pull the memory out.
4. Line up the 512 MB memory stick with the first memory slot on the computer. Be sure the tabs are
open, and align the two notches in the memory stick with the guide pins in the slot, as shown by the
circles in the picture below. Gently press the memory stick in, until it is securely held by the locking
tabs.

5. Locate the AGP slot in the computer. Be sure the card lock at the end of the AGP slot is open, as
shown below. Insert the AGP video card into the AGP slot and use a #2 Philips screwdriver to secure
the video card to the chassis, as shown in the third part of the picture below.
6. To confirm that the video card is installed correctly, make sure that there are no gold tabs showing just
above the AGP slot.

8. Re-connect the cables to the computer. Be sure to connect the video cable to the VGA port on the
new video card, NOT to the port used previously (located above the audio ports).
Hint: Leave the computer outside the cabinet while you perform the software upgrade (see page 11) so
that you can easily reach the CD-ROM. All of the cables should be long enough to reach the computer.
9. When you finish installing the software and have verified that everything is working properly, turn
power OFF and install the computer into the cabinet by reversing the removal steps.
Linking Cabinets for Multi-Player Games
Operation Blockade and Invasion Earth allow players to compete in real time on linked cabinets.
To link two cabinets, connect a CAT5 Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on each cabinet, and connect the
two cables to each other with a crossover coupler. VORTEK™ cabinets are shipped with a 10-foot
Ethernet cable. Software kits that include linkable games also include an Ethernet cable and crossover
coupler.
Operation Blockade also allows linking three or four cabinets by using an Ethernet Hub (not included). To
link three or four cabinets, connect the Ethernet cable from each cabinet to the Ethernet hub (do not use a
crossover coupler with a hub). You will also have to provide power to the Ethernet hub.
