i've HAD the following problem with my system 1 cab:
no matter which game i inserted, they all showed problems about 10 seconds after i turned on the machine (picture and / or sound distorted). all the board components had been tested on a friend's machine - where they worked just fine!
for more info see this thread: http://forums.arcade-museum.com/showthread.php?t=94272
the only thing i hadn't done was exchange the wiring. so i took it out of another system 1 cab and swapped it - VOILA, marble madness is up and running!
"ok", i though, "must have been the wiring", so i took a multimeter and checked ALL THE WIRES of the old harness for continuity - everything working perfectly. i re-inserted the old wiring and once again the problems were there. in with the new wiring again: VOILA AGAIN!
i'm happy that the game is working now, but i'd like to know why it isn't running with the old wiring harness which seems to be perfectly intact ...
any ideas?
