Re: [emax] emax randomly shutting down...?

2008-02-28 by Peter

thanks for narrowing it down to the power supply, guys. googling this  
problem tells me that this is relatively common on these older  
machines, so... yeah.

i am, however, a bit of a novice in regards to knowing much about the  
emax... so any leads or tips would be appreciated, for sure! id really  
love to get the machine working again... i feel weird when i see it  
sitting there, dead ;)
