Several weeks ago, I bought a MVS MV-2F board from Ebay. The seller claimed it was fully functional and 100% working. When the board arrived, I found a minor leak in the battery so I removed it. No other damage was noticed and the components nearby were in an apparently good shape.
Well, on the first boot without the battery a Backup RAM Error 5555 5540 is shown. After a proper cleaning and the Unibios plugged in, the Backup RAM Error changes and shows 5555 5500. Today, once the battery holder and the coin cell are installed I have a new Backup RAM Error: 5555 5580.
I have taken some pictures of the errors too:
None of the green thin lines near the battery look like damaged or cut nor the resistors or any other component. I suspect the problem comes from both Sony SRAM chips beside the BIOS but I´m not totally sure about it.
On the other hand, I have found several SRAM chips in Ebay in case I need to replace them but I do not know if they are compatibles:

If someone can help me out fixing this problem I would be most grateful.
