I have a dead Vectra VL, I suspect psu but not sure.
Does anyone have a working one for sale cheap so I can swap bits & try and save this one???. Dont need fdd, hdd, cdrom, just psu/ motherboard etc.
Thanks

312693 2005-01-10 02:41:00 Better if u get a brand new one. You wouldnt know how good a 2nd hand one is. Or how long it would last. Speedy Gonzales (78)

I'd expect trademe is your friend on this one. Trademe always has this kind of thing

312695 2005-01-10 02:45:00 I have a Vectra VE and a VL, but both belong to a really big company (right that down), so I'm sorry I can't be of service... just thought you should know that people with them do exist.

The best place to call would be companies like EDS that lease the equipment, and no doubt have spares or sources for them.

As for mine, the PSUs are on the way out...

312696 2005-01-10 07:02:00 Thanks people, Trademe has none listed at the moment.
It is a desktop case with a p166mmx processor so it is an oldie......

312697 2005-01-10 08:15:00 its an AT case i guess, so any AT psu should do, as for the motherboard that is a different story Prescott (11)
312698 2005-01-10 08:33:00 No itś not an AT case, it a hp only jobbie. The psu runs the lengthy of the case from front panel to back with it fan half way along, sucking air from the cpu heatsink.
Weird thing it is.

312699 2005-01-10 08:38:00 weird, how big is this case? oh and its a branded pc so they dont really stick to the AT spec's, silly me. maybe its time to bring out the power tools and do some modding Prescott (11)
312700 2005-06-18 11:22:00 Ok so it was five months ago - but has the issue been fixed?

Do you wanna sell me the PC as it is?

Sorry, I'm just really desparate for a VE / VL series 6 motherboard, mine died.

Lots.
