Well, I am a total noobie at this stuff, and like most noobs I know just enough to get me intot trouble. I got myself an old Ninja Gaiden, in pretty rough shape, and wanted to see how bad the control panel and overlay looked. It looked like someone spilled a can of coke on the CPO about 15 years ago, I wanted to see if the overlay was any good. First I needed to pull off the plexiglass and bolts, etc that hold it in, which involved pulling the buttons, joystick, etc. Got everything taken apart and then put back together. Re mounted it, and when I power on the game it goes into the ram/rom check, then just stays in the screen with color bars and a 1p controller/ 2p controller and dip check. Won't come out of it, but strangely if i pick the control panel up off the machine, it goes into the game intro. There is a test switch in the machine behind the coin mech door, it has two unstripped wires coming form it, and has never been wired, so I'm at a loss on what exactly I did to screw it up and what I need to do to fix it, as when I turned it on before it went straight int the game mode.
