Folks,

I've had an issue for some time where my G98 would not boot up, it would freeze at the Boothroyd Stuart display. After powering down and allowing caps to discharge I could usually power up again and get it to function. No such luck any longer. Terminally locked at power up.

I've popped the lid and tried replacing the drive - no success. I can hear a buzzing sound coming from the power supply itself. I've check all connections all all seem sound, no signs of arcing or corrosion.

I've checked the power supply output and found the following:

K12 Red Wire 5v Reads 5.08v
K9 Black Wire Ground
K11 Blue Wire -12v Reads -12.56v
K1 Yellow Wire Reads 13.1v
K7 Red Wire Reads 5.07v
K10 Black Wire Reads 0v

Any suggestions out there?

John
