the PS outputs 150V, +/-12, +5 vdc. Do they *all* drop 50%? All rise 15% no load? If so, that suggests a bad transformer or perhaps a bridge rectifier lost a leg. a scope would help with diagnosing the rectifier. Actually don't even need a scope for the BR. DMM will work. Looks like everything else in the PS can be troubleshot with a DMM & ESR meter for finding bad caps.
BTW IC u1212 is a TA7179 (not 7199)but it is a dual track regulator. Interesting that they use the sense lines.

I misread the part number on the schematic. I am currently waiting for cataract surgery on both eyes. The other voltages are referenced to the +/- outputs of the TA7179P. I've never seen a regulator with tracking inputs that could be left floating.
 
Via email he said that there is 40 volts of ripple at C1213.

And yet, the clueless John Doe troll has itself posted yet another
