[QUOTE="piman, post: 146461, member: 198366"] [B]Dead Amstrad DRX180[/B] ! If it helps I fix my DRX180 myself. The problem was a chip on the PSU board called VIPER53DIP, It seem to blow up after a shortcircut on the power 220V from wall. Try to use your voltagemeter and see if you get 12V at the end on the viper53dip chip. If so buy the dip chip at digikey.com as they are the only on in the world who sell one chip at the time. I also had to change 3 condensators on the PSU.The best way to see if anything is wrong with the PSU is to use a voltagemeter.Voltage should be around 12-13V on mainboard and 13-18V on lnb's output. I have a PSU that function for DRX180 if U are intrested. But remember that I live in Norway.I also have one more VIPER53DIP chip for sale. [/QUOTE]
