I think I have a power problem, in that I get the Modem "chattering" with the LEDs for the line acitivity flickering, nothing from the monitor, and no bars/power/POST of any kind apparent on the OPD itself. If I can try either a new lead in my current OPD Medium-Res display (it's been modified to be a QL monitor with the power line detached at both ends and an 8-PIN DIN connector fitted) or have another way of powering up the OPD (mostly, I need the connector to the OPD), then I can verify my base unit/modem works (as it had been for several days quite happily) and I'll gladly pay a TV engineer to refurbish my OPD mono display. Full capacitor replacement! It was a bit "wobbly" when powered up - ripples on the display - so I suspect that may have been a sign of incoming PSU failure. Are there any boards other than the large Microvitec one in the colour display? I think the OPD must take 12V from there, but I'd like to be certain - there's an unused connector on the 240V cables inside.
