JC <Chipbee40_SpamNo@yahoo.com>: Apr 03 08:10PM -0400 > Me too. In fact my older browser that I LIKE it vulnerable to a button installed by eBay. It is not all that easy to disable. Pricks. So when someone puts up a link to an eBay page I right click and save location and go to Chrome, which I can't strand, and do a "Paste And Go". I need Chrome for certain sites. Then I got IE for downloading videos and music because FF gets it in some weird format, Chrome doesn't get them at all but IE gets them in native MP4 so I don't have to convert them. And they're smaller.   > I prefer FF 18, some people like even older versions. I got 15 on my old XP box but that is currently not on the net, but it will be. However I will not use it for casual surfing because of the obvious reasons. I need it mainly to be on the house network because it has extensive media and other files. The net down there would be limited to youtube, places to get datasheets and manuals. Qnd not even that much youtube. The IE got damaged by a virus years ago, and the highest you can get is 8 for XP so I just ain't too worried about it.   > At any rate, the link it there but it is just a bit hidden. It doesn't even look like a link but you can tell by the cursor.   I hung in there with Firefox 28 until it was just non functional on many sites, FF even managed to snuck in some updates via Thunderbird which screwed it up. The latest rendition of FF is Chromewannabe and microsoft Edge is such a useless piece of crap. try Seamonkey, its FF28 on steroids, most FF add-ons will work and so far I really like it.

The power supply board components all seem to test good with an ESR meter and DMM. I unsoldered several suspects to be sure. Being discrete components, this is something I hope to puzzle out. I am fairly convinced the issue is not on the power supply board itself. I have the 520A service manual but the schematic varies from the actual production board even though the board is marked for both 520 and 520A. This slows me down. I will update if I solve the problem. Thank you.   --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus

vanhelsing@retroze.com: Apr 04 07:41AM -0700 Most likely it has a 3-button stack or "cylinder battery", 3.6v 50mah. They are easy to remove by rocking it back and forth until it breaks loose from the motherboard. Generally these do not have a plug for external battery, but there may be a few exceptions. The jumper near the battery is a cmos reset and not a battery connector.   You will need to solder to reattach the new battery, so if you havn't done that a lot, you might ask someone who has to do it for you. Easiest replacement method is to us a "Button Coin Cell Battery Holder Case"(ebay) and a CR2032 button battery, as that has leads and is easy to solder.

"jfeng@my-deja.com" <jfeng@my-deja.com>: Apr 04 08:35AM -0700 One of my 20th century computers kept its CMOS alive by three AA batteries in a holder that connected to the motherboard via a SIP header.

"Ian Field" <gangprobing.alien1@virginmedia.com>: Apr 03 08:48PM +0100 found it during a rain storm, so no chance of plugging it in till its dried out. And nothing vaguely suitable for a dummy load anyway.   Can't seem to find much online, so might just harvest any useful parts.   Anyone got any info?   Thanks.
