I'm in the middle of restoring my Ms Pac CT. It was bought this way, doing the same thing as now and upon inspection of the chips, one had two broken legs and I did not care for the speed ship, so I replaced all 6 (5E, 5F, 6E, 6F, 6H, 6J) and the ribbon cable.
My 5E & 5F are def Ms Pac chips & labeled that way...
That fixed a couple minor things but the attract screen looks EXACTLY like below and the mazes are Pac blue and do not change like Ms pac should.
Through the trouble shooting guides on line I found the screen shot below and it said the issue and fix where:
"Monsters are diced, chopped in quarters and re-assembled wrong.
Using Ms pacman 5E & 5F ROMs with Pacman software ROMs."
Has anyone seen this before? What software could this be referring to if I already replaced the 6 chips above?
I am confident in my work and have done PCB mounted chips, sockets, and loads of components before, that if a component needs to be replaced I can do it, I don't know which one though.
Thanks for the help!
