Pole Position - Game works, just missing a few colors from the car & billboards
I had an older thread on here, but the title was misleading so I decided to start a new one. I needed to correct a power issue before continuing, so I've installed a switcher to handle my +5v and installed a molex on my harness to switch between the switcher and the ARIIs feeding my system (I hate hacking harnesses so I wanted to leave a way to get back to original hardware if I ever wanted to test it or get it working original again.)
So now, progress wise, I'm back to getting the boards working properly. Below are some screenshots of what I currently get.
As you can see, the car and the sign are missing some colors, the car itself flickers the entire race. Any ideas on where to start looking (ie: ram locations to check/replace?)
I also have some video that shows the problem a little better than the picture at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwjHkT8LOrI
any help at all is greatly appreciated

EDIT: Problem solved with another video pcb, so I currently don't know why this video board did this and would still like to fix it if anyone has any suggestions, but at least my game is up and running
Same cpu board, different video board pic below:
