Title: Electronic theory 101 Post by: SAT (aka GANDHI) on September 30, 2008, 08:11:47 PM Electronic theory 101 = Be Careful. If you take the wrong things apart and the smoke comes out. I have found that all things electronic stop working when the smoke escapes. I have never been able to re-inject the smoke back into the part and get it working again. :72- :72- Title: Re: Electronic theory 101 Post by: SAT (aka GANDHI) on September 30, 2008, 08:12:32 PM And to think....some people need a little smoke blown somewhere to get them working. :72- Title: Re: Electronic theory 101 Post by: SAT (aka GANDHI) on September 30, 2008, 08:12:42 PM And to think....some people need a little smoke blown somewhere to get them working. :72- so true LOL, :72- :72- :72-Wayne :72- :72- :72- Title: Re: Electronic theory 101 Post by: SAT (aka GANDHI) on September 30, 2008, 08:12:55 PM NO NO NO no no..... Now you are confusing Electronic theory with Management Theory. Title: Re: Electronic theory 101 Post by: SAT (aka GANDHI) on September 30, 2008, 08:13:09 PM Not necessarily.....sometimes when managing people, the use of a cattle prob comes in handy.....That alone should merge electrical theory into management theory. ;D Title: Re: Electronic theory 101 Post by: SAT (aka GANDHI) on September 30, 2008, 08:13:22 PM Have heard "Don't Taze me man!" numerous times. Always seems to get what you want done though!

One my of my PC power supplies released into our world their precious smoke, now the power supply can no longer muster any power of it's own. :60- :60- :60- Title: Re: Electronic theory 101 Post by: SAT (aka GANDHI) on September 30, 2008, 08:13:52 PM Well, today once again I have additional experimental data that backs up Jay's trapped smoked theory.

W Title: Re: Electronic theory 101 Post by: SAT (aka GANDHI) on September 30, 2008, 08:14:08 PM It's beyond a bad cap I think. I was going to upgrade that particular machine to a "modern" platform as it was still running an Athlon XP Socket "A" type. So I needed a new PS anyway. Title: Re: Electronic theory 101 Post by: SAT (aka GANDHI) on September 30, 2008, 08:14:24 PM MMMM do I smell a Phenom upgrade? :89- Title: Re: Electronic theory 101 Post by: SAT (aka GANDHI) on September 30, 2008, 08:14:46 PM I'm kind of disappointed on the Phemons. I'm going to go full steam ahead and try to assemble up a dual socket 771 (xeon wolfdale/Harpertown 45nm dies). It's very pricey, but I figure if I kept socket A this long, a 5 year or more lifecycle for this kind of machine will be worthwhile. |
