I had the famous 31 error and so I replaced the power supply.....and.....PRESTO!

now the error code is 11.

what next?
 
You need to try swapping RAM 11 to see if the error moves with the RAM chip, or just replace it with a known good chip.

Here is the chip map for Sinistar:

ok, i replaced all the RAM and here's what i get (after each reset)

RAM error 34 (0-3-4 on LED)
RAM error 17
RAM error 32
no error! game starts and then says RAM error 36 on the monitor. Then starts anyway and freezes.
then the game starts! i play for about 30 seconds and the screen suddenly turns noisy/staticky and that's the end of that.

So, NOW what do I do?

Check for Cold Solder joints on all the connectors.
