My Popeye has some graphics glitches with the moving sprites (characters, hearts, bottles, etc). The characters and objects are blocky and sometimes filled with letters, etc. Even the bucket has a picture of the Seahag's head on it.

Yes, I have already cleaned the chip legs and reseated the connectors with no luck.

Anyone have/know of what chip controls what objects? I'm thinking it's a chip, but not really sure on that and seemed like a logical place to start.
 
Have you checked the sockets for corrosion? Common issue.
 
what do your problems look like?

I still haven't sorted out my popeye issues.

Here are a few of what mine look like. Not really anything like yours, but I still have not found what is causing it.

Even the title screen has a bit at the base of the hat.
