Galaga TECH: Reset Problem

Hey all,
I'm just trying to finalize my galaga over here. It boots fine (tells
me, ram and rom ok followed by the grid) and then I can play it for a
while or let it sit for a while and then boom, it reboots or does some
crazy freezing. I have a new switcher installed. I read that maybe
the power needs to be on the higher end (5.7v ??) but I was wondering
if there is anything else that can cause this problem. Thanks a lot.

Bad ROM sockets are usually the cause on Galaga boards. Lots of work
replacing all those but worth it if you want a reliable Galaga.
