When i turn on the cab, the ghosts and the ms pac character don't follow the dots, they follow the walls/ level structure

then after a while i get this garbage on the screen  :o

it will stay that way for a couple of minutes, after that, the screen is normal again but no characters  >:(

I guess there are a couple of problems so a new pcb seems the way to go, but maybe i'm wrong and fixing it is a cheaper option?

Robin fixed mine as well, he's the right man for the job !

It could also be a voltage issue...might be worth checking the +5V on the board.

I heard from a reliable source that the RAMs often mess up on (Ms.) Pac.

Oops still haven't tried the "slow" Rams Robin, I will work on it tomorrow evening !

If it ain't broke, don't fix it :wink:
Leave the rams alone  ;D
Ok i will also now if the slow rams work  :D

i didn't miss your answer, i just wanted to make sure you didn't make a typing mistake when you wanted to write "sure, if ully wants it i'll gladly give it to him without hesitating instead of putting it in some corner of the shed where something else would look much better than such an old machine which might get some good use eventually in ully's repair shop" ;) 8)

I like that panel with all those power connectors. Did you make it yourself ?

Robin....it's so good to have you just a couple of km's away.....you're brilliant ! :D
