Summary	05367: tx1, buggyboy, buggyboyjr: [possible] Bookkeeping says Credits A & B have a credit in it but i did not actually did so
Description	Bookkeeping says Credits A & B have a credit in it but i did not actually did so. and then every time I hard reset or choose a different game and come back, both Credits A & B gain a credit. (again I did not put a credit it) if I delete the cfg file, the "counters" tag re-automates and I can NEVER get rid of it.

I add for clarity that this is not an issue with the game per se, but with MAME's "Bookkeeping" menu, which does indeed increment Coins A and B on every hard boot of the game.

No.13505 Kale Developer Dec 25, 2016, 22:52	TX-1 coin counters routes to sound CPU PPI8255 port C. The caveat is that PPI device defaults all ports to 0xff at bootup, so a flip/flop is used in there or this is a BTANB therefore setting to possible bug.
