Look in the back for giggles, on the right hand wall. Any boards there?

Sorry. :( I plan on totally disassembling this machine. If you need anything send me a pm.
SirPeale:
You're trashing it? Why?
SirPeale:
I had thought that I could possibly find out if I had audio by taking my powered computer speakers and running a couple wires from the output of the Sounds Good board to the 1/8" jack. I tried all kinds of combinations with no avail. I still can't get sound out of this beastie. Likely it's something I'm doing wrong, but I dunno what. Any suggestions?
SirPeale:
Cool Guy tracked down the problem earlier today: bum power supply.
It wasn't putting out 12V on the dedicated line to the Sounds Good board.
Quick swap with a Peter Chou and viola! My Xenophobe has sound.
Now to source out the triggers and joystick bolts. Anyone know if this
is the same beastie?

I know that Xenophobe is leaf switches, and this uses micros. If the
trigger is the same that would be fantastic. If I can use the screws
that hold it together, that would be even sweeter.
Witchboard:
Glad to hear you got your sound issue fixed. Even nicer it was something as simple as a replacement PS. I don't know about the handles, I always thought they were the same as Tron, Gorf, Satan's Hollow sticks, but I couldn't say.
