Re: MoBo Memory Power Bypass
I think it is the same autowind regulator that photographed by.adolfo.a.aguiar. "5 Amps Voltage Regulator Module, Output 1.5-32V, LM338T". My psu was made in Australia AJ who is well known on the Stereonet forum. It has 5 volt 80 watt rating.

Thanks Nigel for advice, the DM2800 motherboard is now working with external power to ram although took a lot of problem solving. Main problem computer stopped with blue screen and sometimes did not boot. Tested power supply to ram and it had dropped from 1.5 volts to 1.2 volts when under load. Chan...

Re: MoBo Memory Power Bypass
Thanks Nige 2000 for your reply. Unlike the choke photographed in this thread the one circled has no connection points to read from. However both caps that you circled do have 1.5 volts readings. The question then is which one would be the correction one and do I replace that capacitor with the supe...

My problem is that I can't find the correct point on the motherboard to connect to the ram. As described already by Pearce, 'find the choke closest to the ram modules check ...
