Does anybody have an AMEK 2000 series linear power supply they are trying to sell? Mine has gone goofy!

:eek:

ok, here is it. i just built this computer

1Ghz P III
TUSL2-c mobo
60GB and 15GB GXP60 HDD's
CD-RW /creative labs
ati dual head Radeon
256MB SDRAM PC133

my interface is an Aardvark Q10, and it works great...

BUT...

Can someone recommend a combination firewire/usb card for my Power Mac 9600/350 upgraded with a Newer G3 500/250, OS 8.6?

I'm pretty sure I'll have to upgrade my OS to at least 9.04, or even 9.1

I'm using a Pro Tools Mix Plus system. Will my PCI bus be overloaded if I install a PCI firewire/usb card?

This is a stupid question to a lot of you but being primarily a guitar player I've never dealt with this.

Each time I shut down my Power Computing Power Tower Pro 225 (which has a Newer Tech 400 MHz G3 card installed), the date resets to 1956. I assume that this means that the internal battery has failed. Does any one know if this battery is easily removed, socketed rather than soldered in, and if a replacement can be obtained?

I don't know if you have covered this or not, but how important is the power supply to building a daw?
What is the difference between a pentium power supply and an AMD power supply?

I would like to upgrade from Stewart world 1.2 to... ? Am more musician than engineer (learning) and have a private studio setup. I'm looking to power NS10's and KRK 1203's (these are "ancient" 250w rated 3 ways). A thread on RAP turned up Adcom & Parasound. Having, fortunately or unfortunately, more money than brains at the moment, are these resonable choices?

ok: how badly do i need power conditioners/voltage regulators/etc, and a general "what the f**k?" about this whole area of audio stuff.

thus far i know: "dirty power make stuff sound like ass"...

what products would be the most cost effective [and portable!] way to deal?

help.

I seem to have heard somewhere that coiling or otherwise bundling power cables up is a bad idea. Is this true?

I haven't been doing this, but none of my power cables exactly match the tiny space I have for them (i.e. they're all too friggin long), and they are starting to look like a plate of spaghetti.

I've got a switchable 110/240-50/60Hz powersupply that's set-up for 240 right now. I need to swap the plug from one of these:

to one of these:

Do the hot/common/ground wires line up the same way in both plugs?
