Since no one bothers to respond to my other thread, I figured I'd start a new on so that MAYBE someone with knowledge would HELP!!!
Problem: I am bench testing, but do not have the amp setup here for the sounds. Game boots fine with no errors. However, if I go into diagnostics by flipping Dip #1 and then reset, I get a "Sound Board Interface Error" before it goes to the attract mode. It used to do this in regular mode before I replaced the Z80.
Question: Am I getting this error because the cheap squeak or dual amp is not connected? I don't want to go all the way out to the machine only to find my sounds don't work.
Maybe I should fire up the audio probe and listen for sounds on the MCR sounds pins?
