Dave, Check your power pins on the DG-23 video port connector. Pins 21,22,and 23 should be -5, +12, and +5 volts respectively. I can't understand why the Amiga engineers would put unfused power PINS on a connecter like that. Just beggin' for trouble. Should you find that you've popped one or more power lines, you're looking at replacing fuses or fried circuit board traces. Just remove the power supply (four screws) and patch things up. It's not too tough, any tech should be able to do the job. Then again, Denise could be out to lunch . . . ___ /__) ,_ _ _ _/__) / /__/ /_ /_-' PreVue Technologies Amiga Vendor section #5
