I've just bought a Ripleys and after setting it up I immediately noticed a problem with the sound. Some of the sounds are coming through as a distorted garbled mess, the previous owner hadn't noticed because he wasn't very familiar with the machine and to be fair there are a lot of random sounds and noises from this machine. I am very familiar with it however as I've played RBION to death on the pinball arcade.
Going into the menu>diag>speaker and cycling through the tests the sample from chip U21 is a very distorted mess. I've tried pulling the chip off the board and re-seating it but it made no difference.
This is my first stern machine, my guesses are a problem with the board/chip socket or the chip itself. Can these chips be purchased? Can they be flashed? ( looking at you Paul! ). Is there something else I haven't thought of? Really any advice appreciated.
Cheers
Kev
