    Sound Blaster SB1740 not work after sparks when attach to working computer

    Hello have this Sound Blaster SB1740 that not work after sparks when attach to working computer. I not found any short on pcie pins. measured coils. one have 6V, second 12V and other have 0V and short to ground. i try to inject but looks like straight short to ground. i inject 1V 10A but nothing gets hot on thermocam, only wires. when i removed coil i found 12V on power side.

    anybody knows what is that rail for?

    Part of a DC to DC converter for the opamps maybe? something like a boost with a charge pump if the opamps operate on +/-15V supply rails.

      what i went through dealing with my mobo with dead onboard sound!
      by ChaosLegionnaire
      so i took out one of my spare gigabyte ep35-ds3r mobos from storage for use to do some cpu, ram and video card testing of stuff i bought from ebay and got for free from momaka. he bought 50 e8400 cpus for cheap from ebay some years ago and i decided to help him relieve him of some of his supply since he had waaaay too many!! what did we say about hoarding too much stuff and depriving others of them?! *cough* socialism *cough* lol!

      Grundig Vision 9 37 9880 T USB (Chassis SR) TV Repair Help - Distorted Subwoofer Sound and overall weird sound waveforms
      by LEECH666
      Good day ladies and gentleman!

      I am currently trying to repair a Grundig Vision 9 37 9880 T USB LCD TV for a friend that has a weird audio problem. Basically everything works fine except for the heavily distorted sound when the Subwoofer module is connected and there is a buzzing sound coming from the PSU PCB.

      This seems to be a rather rare TV so there is not much prior on topic help to be found however a service manual is available at the usual sources (Electro Tanya i.e.).

      I think the PSU buzzing comes from one of the coils near the bridge rectifier but...

      by Christos Tsiligiannis
      Hello to the forum.

      My name is Christos, I am new to the forum here and i am posting from Greece.

      So i have this old German sound card from Marian, called Trace Alpha. To be exact i have 2 of them and i use them professionally for my small FM radio station here. The first one works like a charm, but the second one does not work at all.

      To be more specific in the same exact pc with windows 7 (i even tried 32bit) the one works while the other doesn't.

      So i tried asking for a schematic from the company and they would not give me one. Instead they...
