What voltage is your PSU outputting ? and what is it, like SR98 ?

Just because a lot of people agree on something, doesn't make it a fact. ~exxos ~
People should find solutions to problems, not find problems with solutions.

Re: 1040 STF showing occasional rogue pixels
It's an SR98, Exxos-kit-capped a few weeks ago.
During the recap, I put it under load using two power resistors (3R3 and 22R) and tuned it to 5.01V. Next, I put some glue on the pot to prevent it creeping up or down.
I just measured it while it was running in the ST and found it was running at 5.23V! Whoops. Perhaps the pot had crept after all?
I just tuned it to 5.05V under dummy load. Then I put the psu in the ST and it's running Metrocross now. The multi meter is still connected so I can monitor the voltage.
Re: 1040 STF showing occasional rogue pixels
Have you tried upping the voltage to 5.20V ? And just see if the machine runs at that ?

Re: 1040 STF showing occasional rogue pixels
ah right, it should be set to 5V ideally, but most ST's seem to end up running a faction lower voltage, like 4.8V - 4.9V.

Re: 1040 STF showing occasional rogue pixels
Ah, so better a tad below 5V than over.
The ST's been running YAART beta for 9.5 hours, no errors. Punish Your Machine Reset demo for one hour: no crash. Metro Cross: no bad pixels. This is looking good! Will run some more tests tonight.
Re: 1040 STF showing occasional rogue pixels
cool! I think you just got noise on the RAM lines. Ringing would get worse higher the voltage and cause more errors.

Re: 1040 STF showing occasional rogue pixels
After:
- 9.5 hours of YAART
- a few hours of Full Screen Demo from the Cuddly Demos
- an hour running the Reset Demo from the Punish Your Machine demo
- and a few games of Metrocross and
I can finally say: IT'S FIXED!
