Just got a Konami Aliens board in the mail, won off eBay earlier this week, and threw it in a JAMMA wired Konami X-Men cab. Existing wiring was for a 2 player setup and Aliens is a 2 player only and all controls and other items work perfectly.
Seems it has a bad graphics rom though; several sprites are distorted and/or colors missing, kind of like a bad connection on a Nintendo.
I'm just learning my way around arcade cabinets so I wager its something of an easy fix if I knew what I were doing, I just wanted to pick some brains. How easy is it to clean and reseat these sorts of chips, any thoughts on the likelihood it would need to be replaced?
