hey guys, still having that whirring sound on my dk, ive changed the power supply, and capped the sound board but still having the same problem, ive read on mikesarcade that it could be this:

Problem: Whirring sound all the time.

Sounds like the jump sound never completely cuts off.

Solution: replace transistor Q4 on the CPU board, a 2SC 1815

i just cant find the transistor anywhere to purchase, any ideas guys? thanks again.
 
Do you mean a faint jumping sound in the speaker that is always on? Is it loud? Does it effect gameplay?

That is very common and there are a bunch of not so proven ways to get rid of it.
 
The good thing about the sound on dk jr and dk is that it's pretty easy to fix, it's very simple in design. There's a seperate section for each sound. There's a good page online somewhere where the guy goes through and shows you how each part works, and what to repair. Maybe it's Braze or whatever? Can't remember the site.
