ChadTower:

It could easily just be intermittently failing, too, and have no cold joints at all.

shardian:
Also, this is a known/documented issue at RGP....they just don't say if it is a specific PIA, or any one of them. That is the part that sucks...

shardian:
Tried to fire this up Christmas eve, and it was allmessed up. Weird coil pulses, lighting pulses, etc. Not to mention it fired up in the middle of a game with a score of 30k something?!?

On power cycle it kept trying to boot over and over. blanking on/off/on/off

Today I tried the DE test Rom again. I've tried it before and it didn't do squat. Since the game is in full-blown failure though, I figured it would be worth a shot. The solenoid PIA fails. Unfortunately, the test stops at that point. I have to replace that PIA and hope it is the pnly bad PIA.
I'm also going to bite the bullet and order a full-blown PS rebuild supply. It will be much cheaper than a new PS, and won't take me that long. Besides,the things I've been hearing about Rottendog chintzing on component specs has me officially leery. It's nice when a technical person gives very specific reasoning behind an opinion than the common "Don't order there - they're crap."  ::)

ChadTower:

Is that an RGP comment?  I agree with jim that you really can't trust what you read there in terms of vendors.  Way too many guys with long memories and unreasonable expectations.

shardian:
The fellow from GPE explained in detail the issues folks have with Rottendog boards.
