Krull High Score Save Kit Compatibility
Verify compatibility before ordering the Krull high score save kit for documented compatible original Gottlieb Krull arcade hardware. The upgrade installs through the original 8088 processor location while keeping the original arcade PCB in service.
Choosing the Correct Krull Arcade PCB Upgrade
The HighScoreSaves Krull kit is designed for documented compatible original Gottlieb Krull arcade PCBs. Before ordering, verify the original arcade board, 8088 processor location, CPU socket, and overall PCB condition.
The primary compatibility checks for a Krull high score save kit are the correct original Gottlieb hardware, an Intel 8088-compatible processor installed in a compatible 40-pin socket, and following the documented ROM Saver and installation requirements.
Original Gottlieb Krull Hardware
Intel 8088 Processor and 40-Pin Socket Requirements
The Krull kit requires an Intel 8088-compatible processor at the documented processor location.
The original 8088 processor must be installed in a compatible 40-pin CPU socket for normal kit installation.
If the processor is soldered directly to the PCB, a qualified arcade technician must install a compatible 40-pin socket before the HighScoreSaves kit can be used.
Socketed vs. Soldered 8088 Processor
Krull ROM Saver Compatibility
ROM Saver support allows designated original program ROMs to be removed because the HighScoreSaves daughterboard supplies the required game code.
Remove only the designated original program ROMs identified in the Krull installation guide. The supplied source does not identify specific ROM locations, so individual socket positions should not be assumed from another Gottlieb kit.
Typical Installation Time
The documented average installation time is approximately 10–20 minutes when the original 8088 processor is already socketed. A soldered processor requires socket installation first and should not be treated as a normal plug-in installation.
Upright and Cocktail Cabinet Compatibility
The kit supports documented upright and cocktail cabinet configurations when the underlying Gottlieb Krull PCB and processor requirements are compatible. Cabinet style does not replace the need to verify the original PCB and 8088 socket.
Krull Pre-Order Checklist
After Confirming Compatibility
Once you have confirmed the original Gottlieb PCB, Intel 8088-compatible processor, compatible 40-pin socket, and ROM Saver requirements, use the product page for complete feature information, Standard/Wi-Fi choices, current pricing, availability, and ordering.
Krull Compatibility FAQ
Which arcade PCB does the kit support?
The kit is designed for documented compatible original Gottlieb Krull arcade PCBs.
Which processor is required?
The kit requires an Intel 8088-compatible processor installed in a compatible 40-pin processor socket.
Does installation require soldering?
No soldering is required when the original 8088 is already socketed. A soldered processor requires professional 40-pin socket installation first.
Can the original program ROMs be removed?
Yes. ROM Saver allows designated original program ROMs to be removed because the daughterboard supplies the required game code when installed as directed.
Are upright and cocktail cabinets supported?
Yes. Documented compatible upright and cocktail configurations are supported when the underlying PCB and processor requirements are met.
