1st, I am a novice/greenhorn with arcade/video games.
I bought a Vapor TRX and have played it a few times without any issues.
It sat unplugged for about 2 weeks and when I plugged it in and powered it up, on the "start up" menu it said:
"Error on music load:2"
So after trying turning it off, waiting, and turning it on, it still came up with that same message. So I went to the "Self Test" menu and then Audio Hardware test. The result was "S/Ram chip #3 failed"

And that's where I'm at. I don't know what to do from here. I have the manual but it doesn't say anything about these things or where to go from here. I did an online search and came up with nothing. Anyone have any hints or helpful advice?
 
If you can get into test mode, can you do a hard drive test ?

Yes, I did that. I let it cycle through approx. 10 times and all was "green".
Is there something I should look for while it runs the tests?

Ok, since not many ideas are popping up,
perhaps someone has a schematic or can at least tell me where
"S/Ram chip #3" is on the board ???

The self test said that's where the error is, so I'll start there if someone can tell me which/where it is please. ;)
