The schematic is on the bottom right of
http://www.spies.com/arcade/schematics/atari/AstDlx1B.TIFF

My guesses would be that your EAROM is dead (they didn't have very many
write cycles) or that the circuit to generate the -30 no longer works
(replace the caps?).

HI!

I've got another question I wanted to ask. My AD board won't save the top
3 high scores. What is the fix ? Where and what chip is responsible? Is
it a battery-backed up SRAM or something ?

Thanks again !

Steve
