o.k. so i bought f-zero from this guy on ebay,the cart arrived i installed it and it didnt work properly,the writting and vehicle looked good but the track and back ground was all garbled up. so i contacted the guy and he sent me another one guess what,yep same thing i moved my mario to every slot to see if the slots were messed up mario works fine in every slot the first one he sent me didnt have a battery in it this one does he said he has 3 of them.just checking with you guys this game is designed for this cab right? im a newb and dont want to start hollering at this guy if its my machine thats at fault but i dont think so.

Looks like you have a "glitch gremlin". Have you tried cleaning all the contacts? Only other thing I can think of is lack of power. Some games wont work properly if they arent getting a full 5v.

You bought that from me...it's quite bizarre, those all work in my cabinet at the arcade....you can send it back and I can just refund your or send you my last one, but I know some games need the 0.2 chip, that is not one of them, though..
 
You mentioned trying a known working ROM in every slot, but did you try the F-Zero ROM in every slot?

The other thing I noticed is that the graphical glitches are only present on the Mode 7 layer (i.e. the track). Do Mode 7 effects in your other games have similar glitches?
