Hi guys and gals --
I have an IBM 9590 system with what appears to be a bad power supply. Does anyone happen to have a spare they would be willing to sell me?
The system turns on and runs for a short while, but after 30 seconds to a minute, the monitor stops receiving signal and the power light on the front of the machine slowly fades out, but the power supply fan stays on. I believe the hard drive even stays spun up. If you turn it off and then back on, it won't turn on most of the time until it's been given a few minutes to sit in the corner and think about what it's done! I already tried removing the power connectors from the motherboard and cleaned the connections - same issue, unfortunately. Super strange... Anyway, I figure the power supply is the likely culprit...
Thank you,
Ryan
