Re: Gravitar Weird Start up / hi score save

Yeah, Im not sure what happens with that doubler circuit as the caps dry
out. There may be noise on the supply or something that you can't see
with a VOM and may need to look at it on a scope maybe. But, as Peter
said, the simplicity of just changing the caps is probabaly your best
option. I definitely have fixed high score problems by replacing those
caps in the past as well.
