I have a 1981 Atari arcade Centipede that I'm trying to put back in service. I bought it from an arcade in the late '80s and played it for quite a few years. It finally died and it has been mothballed for about 25 years. I'm working on the +5V supply now. I have a full set of manuals and schematics. If anyone nearby has an EPROM reader/burner or an Atari CAT box, I'd be very pleased to contact them. The game partially plays if I substitute an external +5V supply, but several entities like the mushrooms and the bullets don't show on the screen. The background color is not black. The self-test mode doesn't work right either. I'll post a more complete message in the Centipede forum. I'll appreciate any help! Thanks!!!
