hey everyone,
I got this board a while back and in the past two days i was trying to repair it , it has some graphical issues similar to a character ram error,
so i checked the test menu and all checks passed , so changed the the character rams first & nothing changed & then replaced the sprite ram and nothing changed & then reflowed the PPU still no change ,
So i took a break then came back the next day and decided to give it a visual inspection and found out that one IC had dirty legs
(5H FCT162244)
Gave it a clean tested the pins and some of them moved , so i gave them a reflow
Tested the game and boom the graphics are back to normal now
Hope you enjoyed this fix
