Here is the sound driver section:

(Mark Bellis, if you read this you can add this schematics to your RCX circuit
collection to get everything together)
It seems impossible that you have fried anything if you still get on/off sound:
there is only one buzzer driven by a simple circuit, so the hardware can't be
wrong here (and I don't think it could ever get "tired" with the 330 ohm series
resistance...)
So I suggest you follow Claude's suggestions who posted while I wrote this ;o)

As soon as I get access to Visio again, I'll write it up and post it with a credit. I was wondering what the other NAND gate is (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics)

| I recently read a post from someone wanting to generate friendy sounds similar to R2D2 using an RCX. I thought this was a good challenge so set out to try. I was getting to the point where I could generate a number of similar friendly sounds and (...) (19 years ago, 21-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics)
