Why is Alice overheating?
« on: May 14, 2004, 12:19:38 AM »
I have got a second a1200 the other day.

now the problem is graphical corruption in displays
of 640x480 at 31khz on a vga mon.

the glitches are only small usually a line of pixels
change color, but can lead to a few more after heating some more.

the board is a i.d.4 board with E123C and E125C removed.
however the budgie revision is -01, and the person who did the fix, also wired 2 resisters onto 43 of alice?

this isnt needed i thought since it's only a revision -01
budgie?

I have put a heat sink onto alice to keep it cooler and it
works fine  but i should not have to do this.?

are the resistors causing the problem??

The case isnt on

Alice gets hot almost immedialty, within a minute
shes hot to touch!  :-)

the resisters have to be stuffing it up i figure,
It isnt meant to have the pin 43 fix.

being an 1.D.4 mobo with -01 budgie.

unless it's another hack?

is there any other hacks that use pin 43 of Alice
