Should I update 1976 chip sockets? Sea Wolf question...
I'm checking out a Sea Wolf, and the game would not come up except for some vertical lines. I found that the 8 socketed ROMs had crept out a bit, so I reseated them and the game is now running fine.
Do you think I should put some modern chip sockets on the board to help keep this from happening again? I know chip creep is usually caused by leg tension, but if the socket isn't as tight as it should be....
Also, does anyone know how the "High Score Clear" button is supposed to function? Pressing it does nothing that I can see....
