It appears that the 8080 in my Space Invaders is overheating. If I leave it on long enough the 8080 gets hot enough that you can barely touch it, and the game starts doing weird stuff. I have replaced the 8080 itself and also put a switching power supply in but no luck. I was considering a cooling fan, but that seems to be treating the symptom rather than the problem. Is putting a fan in an acceptable solution? And if not, what could be causing the overheating problem? Thanks in advance for any help.
