Picked up a Gorgar that's almost all working, but has never talked the entire time the PO had it (25+ yrs). All of its boards are original EXCEPT the speech board is a Sys9 rev from a Space Shuttle. Interestingly, the sound board looks like it had jumper W1 installed at one time, so it might have been one of the few Gorgars built *without speech* originally!
The speech ROMs are unlabeled, and unfortunately Googling the various OEM codes isn't leading me anywhere. EA 8332A seems to be the only common link.
At any rate please ignore for the moment that the speech board's jumpers are obviously "suspect" because I'm trying to determine just what kind of ROMS are installed: 2532, or 2732? The Sys9 speech board is jumpered by default for 2732, but Gorgar's ROMs would have been 2532.
Obviously there are a few possible issues and paths when it comes to troubleshooting "no speech" but I don't even have a baseline: I have no idea what these ROMs are - what game they're from, what type, what order? Jumpering the card either way, still gives no speech.
ALSO does anyone know where I can download the speech rom images, to compare what's actually on these?
Thanks in advance...
