Power Supply Replacement?

Kier:

Thanks again mgb, just wanted to give an update, the power at the board was horribly low, so I bought a new power supply. Both red lights are lit, and power holds. Was able to adjust the colors on the monitor and the bridges appeared. Now I only have the title screen graphics that are off.  I am going to try the cleaning and resetting the chips this weekend.

It is really never a bad idea to start a game out with a new power supply even if the old one works fine. A few of the top shops never let a game leave without a brand new power supply.

Kier:

I had read power was the 1st thing and always the 1st thing, so when I finally got around to ordering it, it wasnt really that much of a surprise it solved the board issue.

Alas, I will not have to take my chips out and resocket them after all. I pulled up Guerrilla War on MAME to try and match the colors better, and started adjusting the monitor on the real machine and.....wait for it... what I thought was a graphic glitch(I am rather ignorant at this), was nothing more than the previous owner, cranking the brightness and contrast up to the highest level and throwing it all out of whack. The GUERRILLA WAR in Camouflage came in crystal clear on the title screen. Love it.

Graphics look awesome now.
