I came onto your web site and simply adjusted the colors, brightness and the game looks brand new as if I purchased a new one, thank you for your awesome tips, hints and videos, this is an amazing web site that truly helps you !

Resetting issues such as the ones you are describing are usually caused by a power supply issue. It could be that either your power supply needs to be adjusted or that it is faulty. The best thing to do is to check it with a multimeter and the adjust it to see if you can get the +12 VDC and +5 VDC within an acceptable range. Please see our post on Checking And Replacing A Power Supply for more information.

Your second issue is probably related to your monitor chassis. The type of overlapping you are describing on your screen is typically caused by a bad capacitor. Instead of just replacing the one capacitor, it’s probably a good idea to install an entire cap kit on your chassis. Please see our post on Installing A Cap Kit for more information.

We have also featured your questions on episode 24 of our Q&A podcast. Please listen to it for more of our thoughts on your questions. Thank you for your questions and good luck with your repairs.

I popped the chip back in and in runs perfect. I also wanna say its a great cab the game is awsome and very challenging. Its great to have it working in my arcade collection.
