Hi folks. I've been having many interesting and intermittent problems with my A1200 (030 50/50 128MB) over the last few days. For a couple of days a flash of 'interference' would appear briefly on my Microvitec 1438 monitor. Didn't think much of it - checked leads etc and all fine. Thought was getting a burning smell from power lead entry point on computer, so opened and removed shield but could see nothing amiss. Left computer running for a few hours, came back and wasn't aware of any smell. Then, I was standing some way from computer and it powered down and straight back up again. Anyway, things seemed back to normal. Using last night, however, the monitor picture suddenly went very pin-cushiony and stayed like that. Curiously, making contact with the horiz adj button temporarily restored normal display. Switched monitor off, waited a while, then back on - no problem. Finished with computer and switched it off (monitor still on). Nudged PSU (A500 one) and the monitor flashed to a lighter screen. This was with Amiga off. I switched all off and removed PSU. My question is: do you think this is what is likely to be causing problems? I got the PSU second hand and don't remember what they were originally like. It seems to run very hot - can hold hand on but is uncomfortable - and is very lightweight compared to the A1200 stock PSU. Is this due to capacitors or what? (Apologies if this is an amusingly ignorant question) Should it be this lightweight?
Cheers.
