So, after a lot of advice from everyone, I rebuilt my monitor chassis on my recently acquired Joust and the picture looks great! Now, on to a new trouble spot.'
From day one, the sound was working just fine. I rebuilt the chassis to fix a blown flyback, put it all together and everything worked great, including the sound. I shut it down and gently pushed the machine into it's spot. I turned it on - no sound.
I read many threads on this, but my problem seems unique.
First, I rebuilt all my connectors on the PCB's and did a cap kit on the PS. Power seems good. I get sound when I hit the test button. In Test 4, I get some sounds, others try, they start good, but end up as digital garbage and eventually the sound stops all together. When I ground out the signal molex connector on the sound card, same things happen - a couple work, other turn to junk and eventually quit.
I am only getting 10.76v at the 12v TP. At the molex connector going into the sound board, I am getting 11.76v. -12 and 5v are in spec.
Does this sound like a cap kit fix from Bob?
Thanks for the help!
