I'm not sure, but I think typical PC power supplies require a minimum load, so I would suspect that is the issue with the low voltage. Are any caps on the board puffed?
There seem to be a number of different board revs. I think that the core issue is whether or not there is the same amount of flash, cpu ram, and bbu ram. The more there is, the newer software you can install.
You could post good resolution pictures for both sides of the old board.
So I found out that this is an AT style power supply. I have found I can either buy an ATX to AT adapter for $4 or an entire new power supply for $30. ATX power supplies don't have a -5V output like the AT style. Do the controls need -5V? None of the boards have -5V going to them.
Edit: I went ahead and bought a new power supply. This might not be the problem but this is a cheap thing to try before I buy a used board or send it out for repair.
I went through and pressed every key on the controller in monitor mode. Nothing appears on the screen just beeps when keys are pressed. The power supply should be here today. Its a long shot but you never know it might just work. If not I will probably be purchasing a used processor board. Thanks.
Ok, I replaced the power supply and it didn't fix the problem. However, for some reason I am able to type in monitor mode now. So I could try to clear the BBU RAM. I am still reluctant to do it because I think my parameters are still stored in RAM. It may be the only way to fix it. I just want to be sure it is the processor but I am about out of things to try. One other that that I noticed is that I don't think the Halt light is on. The manual says it should be on dim but it is hard to tell when the card is installed. If you look close it is dimmer than the other lights. So right now the PGM light is blinking which I don't think is right. I noticed that when I remove the connector to the SKBIF board the PGM light is on solid (see pics). Not sure what that means. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks.
