Hello! Well, today I finally got my first arcade game: Pac-Man It looks and works great. I would like to have it run the demo screen though. Now it is on Free Play. So, I'm assuming I need to find the dip switches to change the settings, but I keep looking and have no clue. Any help would be much appreciated. Also, what type of cleaner is good for cleaning the cabinet. Thanks guys! -Ben

If you Pac-Man won't show you his dip switch, pehapds you need to buy him some flowers and candy first.

But seriously, near the bottom of thsi page are some manuals in PDF fprmat that should help.

Well, I downloaded the entire manual to no avail. I'm starting to think it doesn't have dip switches? Can it still run without them? If someone has a full size Pac-Man can you please help? Thanks! -Ben

If you have an original (not a bootleg) Pac Man board, the dip switches are located a little down and to the right of the main connector. The dip switch settings can be found near the top of Mowermans page: http://users.erols.c...man/pacfile.htm
Good luck!
