Tale as old as time...
Helping a friend debug a CPS3 board; at power on, we're getting a garbage screen very similar to this one. Seems to happen with Super/Ultra BIOS carts, as well as cartridges with original BIOS/batteries. I tried dousing the cart slot with deoxit, didn't make any difference.
Thanks!

- Reading 5.05V at the JAMMA edge.
- Checked all of the customs for obviously bent or loose pins, not seeing anything obvious. I do not have a scope, but I used a magnifying glass under a bright light.
- No obvious signs of corrosion.
- The cart slot is very bent, but none of the pins look damaged, and I don't see any bad joints.
Thanks!
