After checking nearly all the fuses in my Comet (I can't find F1 on the Power Manager.....help me out, if you know where it is), I think I may have a dead daughter card.

Another member brought this question up in a private email: "What constitutes a dead processor?" I would presume bad resistors, but which ones are most likely to fry? I bring this up, as there seems to be a great deal of discussion about it lately. I have found that testing resistors is quite different from testing fuses ( sorry to rehash the obvious ). I recently purchased a Radio Shack Digital Multimeter, and wonder if I can use it to test resistors as well as fuses. I've fiddled around with it a bit, and have found that different resistors in a series complete a circuit, but until I know exactly how they work together, I may as well be a dog, chasing his own tail, as I am a bit out of my league.

If anyone has a schematic, or can email a brief explanation to help me along, I would greatly appreciate it, as I would love to resurrect this machine. Or maybe I'll just see if the 180-200mhz overclock will get it working, as well as get it working faster ;-P

Better yet, I'll just apply gobs of solder, and it can serve double-duty as a space heater!! HA!
Just kidding ;-)


Thanx for any advice, and I sincerely hope you are all having an enjoyable holiday season!
