Got the original action reply somewhere from a bunch of parts, but never installed it in any PC.
I was not aware the board has such extensive features and that there is major request on it.
Good for me that I did not sell it on ebay yet, but kept it in storage.
Will have to dig it out, to check the FW version and if it supports the PM games.

you can always upgrade to the latest firmware so you get the very latest version of it

the early firmware versions were not that well (and the early hardware had no update function at all, that came later with a redesign of the pcb) because you could't run/freeze any "modern" games which used the sophisticated protected mode. That came with a new firmware coder that enhanced it to something far more useful, if you are into messing up stuff live in memory without some other debugger.

Action Rewinds have been sold out for many months now - that is why there is no order link
there is no active plan to make more but after orpheus2 demand dies out I can look into making a small batch of them again...

edit: OK , a very limited quantity will be made - just be patient as things are getting sorted out , need to order parts etc and some stuff are only found in Asian markets
