Recently picked up a Contra board which I believe to be a bootleg. When I install the board and power on my multicade I am getting sound effects and music, but am only seeing random white numbers on a pink background. I coined up and started a game and the buttons seem to be working (could hear gunfire when I press the fire button.) Any advice on this would be most appreciated.
 
Here is a picture of the board, the Jamma extender harness I am using, and what I am seeing on screen when I power on the game.

Are you sure thats jamma? looks kinda strange to me. Anyways I wish i could be more help to you, I have a contra as well, but wouldnt know where to start on your issue.
 
Yes, that is a bootleg board.

Likely you have a board issue. But you may want to check your voltages on the board at the far end from the edge connecter just to be sure.
