A friend of mine picked up a DOA SpeakEasy for $250. Game is cosmetically in very nice shape, but it doesn't power on. He bought it from a guy that was "trying" to fix it. With the machine there were 3 MPU boards.
He dropped the machine off with everything. A few weeks ago. 2 of the three. Mapau's were severely corroded. The third didn't look to bad. I cut the NiCd battery off immediately. The board didn't boot, so I looked it over and found a couple minor pin issues. I end up replacing on of the connector pins and the board powered up. It had a set of Black Beauty chips in it.
I ordered replacement ROM's for the game and installed them today. The board shows power but no longer cool,eyes the boot cycle.
My questions are:
#1). Will this stern board work with Speak Easy?
#2). If yes, there are seven sockets for chips and the game on,y appears to,need two. Is that correct, or does it need some other chips?
The light just comes on solid red and does no blinking now.
Thoughts?
