Fair enough. You're likely right that 0.1ohm won't make a difference, so I'll give that a try. Thanks again!

Is it possible that you mistook violet for gray on the resistor? I was unable to find one of this value in my group of resistors. I checked the electronics store and the lady there told me that the nearest values available were 4.7ohms and 5.1. 4.7ohms is Yellow, Violet, Gold, Gold, which sounds...

Excellent! Thank you very much. Next time I'm visiting the 'rents, I'll see if I can get everything working. I'm just going to have to find a resistor of that rating somewhere in my pile of them. I'll let you know if I get it working, and I'll try to get the voltage readings for you.

Thanks, I'm really glad to hear that. I was a bit afraid that the cabinet would be forever crippled by one unidentifiable resistor. Though, I guess we could have looked into replacing it with a switcher in that case, as channelmanic suggested. Actually, I haven't. I suggested it to my father...

My father recently received two cabs that were collecting dust in an old building. One of them we managed to get working with some monitor calibration. When we tested the other one - a Magic Worm cabinet - smoke began rising from one of the resistors on the power-supply, rendering it...
