Anyone have any ideas? i have a galaga board that works fin except that when i start a game, the music starts and then it continues to skip to the next level, and next level, and so on. I have already cleaned the legs on all the sockets chips? i have a second board and that works fine. looking for some idea on where to look and test.
Thanks

Does Galaga have a rack advance like Pacman? That's what it sounds like is happening.

EDIT: Just checked. Switch bank 6J switch #6 is rack advance. It should be off for normal operation.
 
No bullets when firing on Galaga board

yup i am an ass monkey. it does. i was checking the dip switch settings and for some reason on switch 6j switch 6 was on. once i turnded it of that fixed it.


But know i am getting another issue. Games seems to play fin but there is no bullets coming from my ship. I hear the sound of the ship firing, but no bullet and no hits even if Firing directly at a large column of invaders. any idea on this one?
