Star Wars won't boot and beeps 16 times in test mode
Hey Guys,
I'm not the best PC board repair guy. I have a Star Wars PCB that is beeping 16 times in test mode at bootup and essentially gives no other signs of life. Is the 16 beeps telling me I have a problem on the AVG board. Or is it telling me the AVG chip is bad....assuming Star Wars has an AVG chip. I wasn't sure if it had one of if the whole board was acting as an AVG chip. But I know a bad AVG can prevent a board from booting. If it does have an AVG chip what is the location of it on the board? Any thoughts, advice, or suggestions would be appreciated. As always, thanks in advance.
