my pole postion 2 is in working order and sound is working fine. my problem is when powered on all i can see is the normal screen behind a bunch of 0s and 1s. i am not a mechanically inclined person to be able to fix something without direction, dont know much about this so i need some help please. has anyone seen this problem and if so do you know how to fix. any help is greatly appreciated.
 
Try the easy stuff first. Atari made Pole Position games specifically for those people who love to fix things that constantly break. :D

First, try reseating and cleaning the edge connector on both of the boards.
 
if you have a multimeter and can use it, I would test the voltage on the test points on the main board. If it's not getting +5volts all kinds of shit shows up in my experience.
