Hangs at boot

Post by ShockSlayer »

My original styled psone has the correct voltage adapters and such, but when I boot it up, it hangs halfway through the boot up sound, and it just hangs.

The original Playstation with the built in AC adapter?

Check the power supply board for blown caps.

Ok, I actually got the same result from using the original power board.

Anything else? I had to jump 2 of the fuses.

Oh, it's the original? The grey box? Sorry, can't help you there. I knoe the PSone (The small one) hangs if it's not getting about 1.2 amps.

Yeah, the original.

How much does each of the lines need?

Possibly, there's usually some sticker somewhere telling not to store in extreme temperatures.
