ED>To my horror, this morning when I flipping my GS on it emmited a
ED>rapid chirping noise, power cycling with each chirp. (maybe 8-10
ED>times a second...)
ED>(system description at http://wwwcsif.cs.ucdavis.edu/~eddy/gs.html)
ED>Pulled all cards, plugged just the GS into a different wall outlet,
ED>tried again. Same thing. Reading the Hardware Ref, it mentions the
ED>power supply will exhibit this sort of behavior if it detects a
ED>short, or "no load"...
ED>any ideas? Common causes/cures?
ED>thanks,
ED>alex
most likely the power supply is fried..i still run a //gs bbs software
off my major/wg msdos bbs and i've fried a few over the last 10yrs...
contact bill bungee on this feed he posts bungie power supplies..they
are converted ibm heavy duty power supplies for //gs or //e use and have
more kick then the apple power supplies
people i know are satisifeid with them they run about 24 bucks new.
