Ok.. I didn't bring this up before because I just wasn't ready to tackle it..
Now I am.. Last year I restored my DK... it was working 100%. I took the boards out - 2 board version, so I could clean the cab and paint it, etc.
When I put everything back together.. I had some play issues and graphics problem.
Before it would freeze during the boot up sequence... being disheartened, I put it away and left it.
Here is a video of what it does now... the video is a bit bad because the room is too dark I guess....
but, it coins up, but as soon as the first level starts.. Mario dies instantly... You can see an "evil" mario in the middle of the screen.. (really, like all his colors are inverted and he looks like he spawned from hell)
Numbers like when you hit a barrel scroll non stop down the right side.. there is a graphic block in front of the lady...
Once in a while you can get Mario to move... in this vid you see it sounding and scoring non stop barrel hits...
Last year when it happened, I unplugged all connections and reseat them.... same on all the chips I could pull, I cleaned and reseat them...
I'm not opposed to trying that again... but would welcome thoughts..
was working before pulling the boards.. coincidence I have problems now? Bad chip ?
Not sure how to embed video.. here is the link...
