Worked for the last 3 years after a long string of non working sound boards...I have the latest multi Q in this one...

What it does:

Static, crazy sounds at startup. Seems to get locked up on 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh' when I choose a game and either has no sound or continues the 'ahhhh' during game play.

*#&@!!^#

Ugh. I havent checked even opened it up yet. Am so done with Qbert sound crap.

Anyone out there fix these things these days (new diode etc)?? Dont feel like dealing with it...
 
ok, played around with it a bit, resetting, turning on and off, checking all the games etc.

Basically its wacked. Sound goes crazy, from hissing, to 'hello I'm turned on' to being totally normal for 5-10 seconds...

What the hell is going on...Wonky power maybe?
 
Likely the power. Measure the outputs on the two headers on top of the power supply.
I can rebuild the power supply if you need.
 
Dont power that thing up again with the power supply outputs hooked up. Your lucky your sound amp is still good. Power supply rebuild time.
