ScottC2010 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Hi, I have an Atari 800XLF which works fine apart from cutting out after a few minutes then will work again if i leave it for about 10 minutes and switch it back on. My powerpack is an original CO 61763-34 - i suspect this may be the problem. Currently is has a 13AMP Plug with a 5 AMP fuse (It is a UK model and I live in the UK). Has anyone had a similar experience or can help? I have seen replacement DC supplies on ebay and the like is it worth me replacing it?

Oge Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 It should be a fault related to one (or more) dried electrolytics. 61763-34 is a stabilized PS with a capability of ~20W which uses a linear regulator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottC2010 Posted April 7, 2016 Author Share Posted April 7, 2016 Thanks Oge - is this fixable or should I just make a new powerpack using a dc plug and the DIN? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottC2010 Posted July 25, 2016 Author Share Posted July 25, 2016 Bought a modern adapter now and very pleased with it, also I fixed my 1010 play button with just a heated up nail pushed into the plastic and works perfect now. I bought one of those cassette adapters for a car stereo with the headphone jack, I put this into my 1010 and connect the jack to my pc then convert some games with a82cas and load the wav's straight into the machine which works quite well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
