Greetings!
Stumbled across this forum searching the net on Centipede PCB Boards...my arcade Centipede has been nonworking for a few months and finally got it running after replacing the "big blue cap" but now the program seems screwed up.
When starting the game, the opening screen is devoid of mushrooms except for one vertical row down the left side. Also, the sound does not work, only a soft hum coming from the speakers when the volume is turned up.
Do these symptoms sound familiar to anyone as being the result of a particular chip gone bad? I'm about ready to purchase a whole new board and keep this one for parts, but I thought I'd run this by the experts first.
Thanks!
