Old school arcade machine issues

About a year ago I bought a street fighter championship edition arcade machine off craigslist. everything worked great for about a year, but now its dead. when I plug it in, it just has this buzzing sound. does anyone know someone I can contact to come fix it?

TIA

ran across this website a while back when i was thinking of buying an arcade machine too. don't know if they're good but you can try to give them a call.

personally i'd try to see if i can fix it myself first or at least poke around and see if anything is fried that you can replace.

I would try but I have no idea about electronics plus I don't have the time

But I'll give these guys a call. Many thanks for the info

sounds like a power supply issue with the buzzing, i'd keep it unplugged until someone can take a look at it.

My guess would be the high voltage capacitor in the power supply failed.
