Zaxxon, Horizontal (well, really they are "vertical" on a rotated crt) black lines.
The first all-original unconverted cab I got after moving to Virginia 14 years ago was this exact Zaxxon. Sold it about 3-4 years back to a local collector.
His son just brought it back to me. I paid him about what he paid me.
Hadn't been on in a year and now has these stripes. It's not a monitor issue. (Yes, I see the curl. Will deal with that.)
They are spaced evenly but they don't affect any of lines of text (or numbers) on the game or high score table screen. In other words, none of the words/numbers in the game that are from the boards character set have the lines through them.
Before I start troubleshooting, was hoping that someone could just say "Hey, I know that problem, it's chip XXXX at location XXXX".
Just hoping to cut the troubleshooting time! Thanks.
