I have a linear PS that I know is dead, and part of my 2010 resolution is to learn to repair actual boards. I have a fuse tester that makes a noise when fuses are good vs dead ones. Can this be used to test the components of a PS as well? If not, what do you need to use to find out what parts of the board are bad?
 
No. Get a real digital multimeter. They are as close as your nearest Radio Shack.
