Put an Asteroids on the bench today, no video, played blind. Threw it in
selftest, RAM OK, some ROM errors. Changed ROM at F2 - self test now perfect.
Placed in game mode - no picture, spotkiller on on the monitor. Changed ROM at
D/E 2 - video is fine.
I didnt bother trying to figure this out, other than swapping the ROMs back
and forth a few times and getting the same results. I guess that ROM selftest
isnt perfect.
Now - ssecond problem - ship fire sound same as saucer fire sound. All other
sounds ok. I am suspecting bad LS259 latch at M10 sending out the saucerfire
signal when activated for either ship or saucer fire - how far off am I?
Didnt have time to throw my chip checker on the chip today.
