Check the filter board (the board with all the inputs on it). They're known to blow traces. I just recently repaired a trace on my naomi. Also, check to make sure all your voltages are correct at the board. It may be able to supply enough power to run the fans and leds, but not enough to power the chips properly. You should have 5.1, 3.3 and 12 volts at the board. Naomi's are picky about the voltage.

You should also check the supercap, which is under where the cartridges go, right under the battery and next to the bios chip. They tend to leak and damage the traces underneath.

If you're unable to get the naomi 2 working and you want to unload it, let me know. I'm looking for one.
