ugh why can't we have 24/7 electronic components shops
the components i replaced didn't help
there are two resistors that seem bad but it's a pair i forgot to buy
:(
so what's happening on the monitor, is
the psu is supposed to output +5 +15 +115 and -15 volts
the -15 line is outputting anywhere from -17 to -20, seems like it goes down to -20 under load
which would make sense then for the picture to be good for a few seconds when it powers on but degrades after that
can't really pinpoint what's causing that though.. i only have 2 resistors left to swap on the list i made for the -15 line
and it's the ones i forgot to buy
anyway sorry i didn't stream tonight for this ;;
@squirrel don't sweat it pal, you woulda had this same bad surprise some other time if not now
just out of curiosity.... how bad would it be to try running it with 220k not rated for the full 1/2W?
@bea the resistor would probably burn up
i don't have the required one either way
@bea er required resistance regardless of power rating i mean
so now i have to go alllll the way back downtown to the electronics components shops ....
for 2 resistors
220k 1/2W
bleh.
