Re: Emax I SE Power Supply gone kaput!

2007-09-12 by Simon_Owen

Hi Alan

I had the same problem a few months back.  I've got an Emax SE Keyboard with a crapped 
out power supply.  Now i'm not sure, but people have replaced the old power supply with a 
small form factor PC psu with some success.

Does anyone have any instructions on how to do this.  I've got my luvverly Emax sitting up 
against a wall, and i can't even sell it on Ebay for £50 because the psu has gone.  I'd love 
to resurrect it.  If i can't get the PSU in my Emax fixed, god help me when the one in my 
Emulator II goes pop also!

Cheers
Simon
