I have an issue whereupon I am getting a vertical "stripe" of sprite glitching on the right hand side of my screen. The glitching only appears to be on one (?) sprite layer, in that it's not always present, but is consistently present for certain sprites, in a certain location. It almost looks like dead pixels on an LCD, in that the glitch just leaves behind black (sometimes white) squares of empty sadness where it occurs. I have included four pics of the symptom. It's most visible on MOTW.
Any other ideas?
Here's the link to the album. Any input is appreciated.
- I've replaced the PSU already, so at least it's not the PSU itself that is the cause.
- The monitor had a cap kit applied a number of years ago, and the cab has been indoors, comfy, and not run but for maybe an hour or two at a go for better than a decade.
Any other ideas?
- Might it be an issue with the two boards of the MV4 not being seated well?
- Can battery leakage cause this? (I'm in the process of getting parts to install a coin batt, but don't know if the original has leaked as yet)
