I just brought a dead "barn find" Omega Race board back from the dead. I replaced and socketed (after removing alkali damage) the 74LS245, 74LS32, and 74LS04. That brought the game to life, but with RAM errors. I replaced all of the suspect vid RAM, and the game now works. Well, works as in I can play a game and all of the graphics and sounds are present etc. The odd thing is that all of the lines are squiggly instead of straight. Not horribly squiggly, but just not perfectly straight.
I know for a fact it's a board issue, the issue was also present when I tested the board with my Battlezone monitor.
Any idea where to look next for this issue?
I'm so close to getting this thing 100% working.
