Atari Warlords PCB repair needed!

Hey all...

I have an upright Warlords that has some PCB issues. Back in the fall,
the game would boot up, except the right side of the game image was
filled with garbage. Flipping the test switch, and reseating the chips
didn't fix the problem at that time.

I recently tried to boot up the game again, and now I get absolutely
nothing on the monitor. The monitor neck glows, and the marquee and
backdrop light up, but the game does NOT play blind.

We've been having a very frigid winter in Ohio, so maybe the cold
affected it?

At any rate, I'm wondering if anybody could repair this PCB, or suggest
somebody that can. Please reply to this message or email me at
HojoArcade36 (at) yahoo (dot) com if you can help a fellow collector
out.

Thanks!

Kyle S. :^)

Paul Shaffelburg fixed mine but he may have dropped out of the
newsgroup. Haven't heard anything from him in a while. He was in
Canada.

your problem is one of the 8 rams, they can pass the self test and
still be bad on warlords
