I'm still fairly new to repair and I've read that MKs can be picky, but I didn't realize it would be this frustrating. I've been having a few issues with a Mortal Kombat II I recently acquired. The game itself ran perfectly (with no sound) for a few days until this randomly started happening:

This is what the rom check settings says. I can't even make it out. If someone could translate what this means please do.

Just for kicks we took the second board off the main MKII board and the problem went away. Of course, the game itself didn't run, but at this point I'm thinking I should try cleaning + reseating the ROM chips, but I'd like other possible solutions aside from that so I can sit and try everything tomorrow when I get there. Here's a screen of what it looked like when we booted it up with no second board:

It looked like some of the pins might've been bent on the second board, but they still went into the connector just fine. Any idea if this might be causing my problem?

Thank you guys in advance.
