Toki board with cutting audio.

[daeds]

Hello there everyone,
I've been looking for a Toki board and I have a pretty good deal but the guy says it cuts sound, it's like 5 seconds clear and then 5 seconds of noise,
As a beginner in this matter I ask all the more expert people here, could this be an easy fix or should I stay away from this one and look for another?
I imagine it is a bootleg because it has a daughter board on top and as far as I know the original one doesnt:

Thanks a lot in advance.

If you don’t know how to fix it. Dont buy it.

Buy a working one.

I like learning and sometimes I buy almost broken stuff to learn a bit more and try to repair it, just wanted to know if it's doable and easy to find the culprit or a bigger problem like a CPU or something like that. Been learning how to fix stuff for a while now but I'm new to all of these arcade boards and they are scary.

Cool. Buy it, try fix it and make sure you post a repair log.

I will try to get a cheaper price for it. Any ideas where to start when trying to fix it? That's my main issue.

Start by dumping all the EPROMs and checking against MAME. Then looking at the audio circuit.

Hm, that's going to be hard without having proper tools for these boards I suppose, will try to check with some friends if they have the means for eprom dumping.
