I have a standard apple power supply on my gs, the original one from way
back then and I do not have any problems. I have a RamFast revD, Sonic
blaster, CT-tec 4meg card and a 15Mhz Zip (yes its not a typo 15Mhz Zip)
on my Rom 01. Things are running great with no problems at all. I do have
a System Saver IIGS by Kensington and no internal fan. I think I have my GS
"seriously beefed" and no power supply related problems. It could be the
possibility that >HIS< ps is going bad or even his ramfast or perhaps the
hd them sleves. Who knows ...
