The more I fiddle with my Punch-Out, the worse it gets. Today I was trying to figure out why the lower monitor has been randomly losing power. While the game was still plugged in (stupid, I know), I checked the wires from the switching power supply, and noticed that the wires coming from the +5V were completely out from under the screw and resting between the +5V and the ground. As I put it back in, I think I hit the wires against both the +5V and ground at the same time.
Now the top monitor comes on every few times I turn the game on, and both screens either display garbage or just the Punch-Out/Nintendo logos- but very small. I have attract sound and the initial fire-up tune (sometimes), but that's it. The game won't coin up or play blind.
What did I do, and where should I start as far as fixing it?
Thanks in advance,
David
