FIXED!
From Muel on KLOV Forums:
Tom,
I've had this happen to my Stargate - corrupt data in the CMOS causes the seemingly infinite lives and the inability to make adjustments in the service menu.
To fix:
Remove batteries from the MPU.
Open the coin door
Start the game
You should get a factory settings restored message because of the open coin door switch being activated.
Power down.
Put new batteries in the MPU
Start the game again and adjust the game settings to your desire.
..should be back to normal at this point.
(Works for my Stargate whenever this happens.)
-Muel
Thank you Muel!
This worked perfectly!
I really appreciate the help!
Regards,
Tom

Having the same issue with my Stargate machine. Could you elaborate on where the MPU is located / what it looks like? Just picked my unit recently, so kind of new to this, thus starting my learning curve.
