Thanks, I have a couple of those kits. I used one for the board I mentioned that
had a distorted scratchy sound, but it didnt change anything. Along with the
sound problem on that board there is a problem with the colors, I only get
green. I will try replacing the 7905 on the other board and see what happens.
Anybody know of a site that has trouble shooting on the ARII board?
Thanks,
Dan Piraino
