Looking for help on getting started with trouble shooting my games. I'm a avid gamer, but total noon at fixing or even just diagnosing the issue. If I could learn checking voltages and narrow down what part is the issue I would be a happy camper. I'm will to buy new parts or send old ones out for repair. But I'm so far from that stage at this point. I'm making 2012 year of learning repair and not buying any games. Thanks Tony
 
This is great thanks, now do they make one for nintendo and midway bally/midway I got wizard of wor that's giving me issues I don't know what style or company that falls under? Thanks
 
There are some different writeups for things like Z80 processor games, etc, but the book I linked is mainly about generic testing, and will work on other manufacturers than Atari. If you need specific info about a specific game, it's best to ask for that specifically, or ask for help with your issues...
 
Thanks ill get my space duel in test mode and report back. I have the 30 th- 3rd off so lots of reading time
