Alright, stick with me for a minute here. I had a weird sync problem with my Golden Tee monitor (25k7401). I couldn't figure out the problem but I lucked into another 25" monitor (25k7131) in a TMNT cabinet recently. I fired up TMNT and the monitor appeared to be working fine. So, I take it out, change the bracket, put it in my Golden Tee, hook up my power and immediately I get a blown fuse.
Now, the difference between the 2 machines is the power supply. In the TMNT there's an isolation transformer. Not so in the Golden Tee. However, it's a newer ps (much like one you'd find in a pc) and I thought isolation transformers weren't required?
Another thing, the old monitor had 3 pins presumably for line, ground, and neutral. But this monitor only has 2, what I think to be line and ground.
Anyone have any ideas? Is the solution as simple as use the isolation transformer? I would go ahead and try it, but I'm not sure how to put it into my circuit and I don't really want to spend hours trying to figure it out if someone here has a good idea that isn't the problem.
Thanks!
