Once in a while the Defender game will produce red jail bars on the screen. This only hampers some of the sights, but play and sound are good. Power down and up it goes for a few hours. I did reseat the rgbg connection from the monitor and it still had the red bars. Powering down and reseating logic board/ribbon cables also took care of the problem.
Sounds like a thermal problem?? Rom board.

If playing with the ribbon cable from the ROM card will make a difference, it needs to be recrimped or replaced. www.arcadesolution.com in the self help pages explains how to do both. Read the whole thing for how to replace the ribbon cable, skip down to the part regarding using the vise if you just want to recrimp.

I see your point in the question being asked numerous times, I am so sorry about that :( (being sarcastic)

I do appreciate your help though!
Will look into it.
