Did you check the power levels with the Fluke pod in? Seems like I heard that it draws more power than the CPU. Also, maybe you have a weak component in the CPU circuit, since adding the pod changes trace lengths, power loading, etc. does it not? -----Original Message----- Okay, thanks for all the suggestions, now for an update ........... As Alex said above, my power supply was indeed sagging somewhat as I just upped the voltage and the Bus Test then passed okay. However ....... I still can't run the board with the Fluke attached using Run UUT - all I get Seeing that has reminded me to add that the CPU socket has recently been replaced. _______________________________________________ Techtoolslist mailing list Techtoolslist@flippers.com http://seven.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/techtoolslist
