Thank you Bruno for the link  , but I'm already planned to use my standard config:



an old Pc with Pentium 3 733Mhz, Riva Tnt2, Sb16, Hd 20Gb with Advancemame and Advancemenù.

I want to play with Pacman and the others one hand games (Ms Pacman, SuperPacman, Pacman Jr, Lady Bug, Nibbler  etc...)

Hey ..... another package  from US :



yes ....... a N.O.S. PACMAN CP overlay  (not from Twobits):



note


old (29 years  ) and new CP overlay:



time to dismantle the old CP:





after removing the old sticker  :



very difficult to remove it manually so ....... I try the Bruno's method:



it works!!!! 

after twenty minutes of work:



 

primer:



and after 2 coats of black....:



like new 


 

[scr33n]

Before to apply the new overlay, I have to restore the original Pacman joystick (leaf joystick  Love it!!!):



disassembled, a bit of rust  :





the usual anti-rust bath:



riassembled, not perfect but it's ok for me:



it's all for today
