| 472744 | 2006-07-23 06:59:00 | whoops, made a stupid typo, its a PS2... i was thinking that they must have internal power supply units right? basically a transformer, so if that got blown maybe its kept local to the power supply and not the rest of the board? anyways, might be more trouble then its worth.. I'll check out some console modder sites see what they say |

I often just short out that fuse ... they are "just" accessible, and could be replaced, sometimes. 100V Japanese supplies work over 2 twice as well on 230V. Just not for long. :D |
