I picked up a Gyruss a while back that has been sitting. I finally tore into it today, and I'm getting some graphical anomalies. My ship, weapons, background enemies, and music are fine, but all of the foreground images, enemies, and all the text are garbled or just big white/orange blocks. It's still sorta playable, but strange when most (but not all of) my enemies travel from the background into the foreground and become big blobs.
My voltages from the switcher are fine (tried them adjusted to dead on, a little high, and a little low just to be sure; no effect), and I already inspected, cleaned, and reseated every socketed chip on the board. I'm no expert, but I think my issue is either one of the roms has dropped some data or there's an issue with the memory controlling the foreground. Anyone confirm or deny my suspicions?
What would be my next step?
