• Dead 7300

    From Kevin Bowling@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jun 13 04:49:49 2017
    I have a 7300 that is unresponsive to power. I assume the PSU is dead.
    Does anyone have spares or a donor machine they'll sell me? In USA

    Regards,
    Kevin

    I'm hanging on to all of mine for now, but I and others here might be able to help you with diagnosis.

    And these usually show up on ebay from time to time in various forms, usually selling for $100-$400 each, including shipping. I think there's a motherboard on there now, that you could take your chances with:

    But let's start with what you have. Have you checked what voltages you are getting on all of the power supply pins?

    Feel free to visit my page at: http://mightyframe.blogspot.com/2014/07/reconstructing-at-7300.html

    I link right back to this group where DoN himself gives us the pin voltages to check:

    Let me know how else I might help. I check in here once a week or so.

    Best,

    Ah...this is you! I'm so glad that you've been able to help Kevin out here! He was the first person I thought of when you made your generous offer. Glad you guys connected first without me being the intermediary here.

    Oh, and thanks again for your generosity!
