SH*T! My Super Punch Out is now acting up. The damn thing worked fine for 3 or 4 games today... then I noticed some "clicking" in the vocal audio side... I figured the pot on the top monitor was acting up as it had shown signs of being dirty already so I adjust a bit but the clicking didn't stop. I cycle the power... when I power back up the music plays... the attract screen runs though it's course without issue, but if I attempt to play a game, the music plays fine, but when the bottom screen changes to the text BEAR HUGGER at the point where it's supposed to vocally say "CANADIAN BEAR HUGGER"... I get a semi-loud pop/crack sound then it locks up.
I've tried removing the filter board... same issue. I checked the voltage and it seems to be running at 5.05v so thats not the issue...
Any suggestions? I paid $309 for the board set and... well... I wouldn't be all too thrilled if the damn thing has just died. Of course I sold the friggin P.O. boardset that came in the cab just last week so I can't pull the ROMs and stick them in that boardset...
Any suggestions?
EDIT: Also... chances are this issue is going to be beyond my capabilities (guessing)... anyone know who works on Nintendo PCBs?
