Bone stock 1040Ste. What do I do to it?

[420kb]

exxosuk - just wanted to let you know that a few years before i ended up registering on this site, i rebuilt my own st's PSU after finding your site on google. it was a USA 120V ST, it looked identical to the ones you show so i would imagine it's only a difference of the transformer. i haven't recapped my STe's PSU yet but I want to get that replaced at some point or another. i haven't seen though if there are new PSU replacement options that are more efficient than the stock ST's PSU?

 

last time i was testing the PSU on that ST i got careless and zapped myself, so I'm a little hesitant to break out the STe's PSU

 

aside from that i would suggest OP either replace the floppy with a Gotek flashed with HXC or get an ultrasatan. i love my ultrasatan!

Loos amazing! How do you like the Ultrasatan? Was it easy to set up? I'm no STe expert myself, and I just ordered one.
