Star Wars - Should I do It?
FrizzleFried:
Well...I had SOME success with the hum, but not fully. I removed the power supply and cleaned it up (determining that I have a serial number of SD00045 in the process!)...cleaned up the fuse block and replaced the Big Blue. I was a bit disappointed when i plugged it all in and heard "hum"...
It's about 1/2 the volume it was before, but it is still there. I then cleaned the edge connector a bit with a business card...no help.
>argh!<
The hum isn't terrible, but it's there...and annoys me a bit (except when playing as you really can't hear it with the music/sfx running).
I think I might buy a new fuse block... but I dunno.
Anyway...here is the first pic of her in the gameroom. This is likely a temporary location until I figure out what, exactly, I am going to do with the gameroom. By popular demand I am removing a few games and putting a couch/futon back in the room...

If i was closer to your house i would show up with a pickle jar of quarters and a six pack.
FrizzleFried:
...anytime!
...and here she is in her new "home"...

Are your speaker/audio wires bundled with anything? If so, run them separate. Maybe that will clear it up a bit more.

About the hum: you do know there's a fan in there right Frizz ;) :laugh:
Try to run it without the extra connection board (the one that "closes" the cage.
Eliminates half of the connectors.....
If any connector gets off very easy, replace. (see my MC cabaret thread).
