Tech: Centipede Rom Numbers

[cprince]

Archived from groups: rec.games.video.arcade.collecting (More info?)

I just got around to repairing some Centipede main boards I have. Some have
200 nos. at D1-J1 and some have 300 numbers. I know that the two can't be
intermixed, so no problem there. But then I picked up a board with 100
numbers at D1-J1 and at F7 and H/J7. I accidentally messed up the order of
these chips while they were setting on the workbench and now I don't know
where they went. The last two numbers in the 100 series do not correspond to
those of the 200-300 numbers.
Does anyone know where they go or if they are even Centipede roms. The
numbers are: Atari 1983 8306
136018-101
-103
-104
-105
-106
-108
Thanks

136018 shows as Xevious roms.
Let me know if you want another board or two to repair.

Thanks, you are right. I wonder what Xevious chips are doing in a Centipede
board.
And no, I do not want any more Centipede boards to work on. I need to move
on to other projects. I now have a couple of working Centipede main boards
to sell and one to keep as a spare.
