I still used the original brick in my Ms Pac. Gives a steadier voltage than any SMPS I have! --- End quote --- It's a simple devise, not much can go wrong with it, which in theory should make it more steady and reliable. I would think that the only thing that might affect its voltage output would be power spikes and drops coming from your utility co. I always use power strips in my cabs that provide a little bit of power conditioning... haven't seen any problems whatsoever.... knock on wood. |

Okay, now that I've got my Centipede up and running, I can now focus back on Pac-man. Going to try and find time this weekend to pull the monitor and see if I can get it up and running. |
