Not an Electrical Engineer , but an Electronics Engineer.... I tried
something after following your thread. I use a Variable transformer ( 90
Volts AC to 140 VAC ) to keep my computer's input Voltage at a constant. I
lowered the voltage in small increments down to 107 VAC and everything
worked fine on my BGE 400 G3 running 10.1.5. I haven't yet researched the
differences in specs for the two P/S's , but feel that your problems are not
due to your AC input voltage. Most appliances will handle spikes or drops in
voltage in the � 20 % range with no noticeable problems, with 125 VAC being
the optimum std. And 117 - 120 being average.
