Hi all,
I have an 8032-sk with a working board (some minor issues, though) and a CRT that suddenly stopped to work.
I'm sure the problem isn't the board or the connector or the power, because I swapped the monitor with another 8032-sk I have and it works.
Clues: - It worked fine until some days ago; - the two thin filaments in the tube become hot (red); - When you switch the computer on while the tube is cold, after few seconds you can see an almost imperceptible green flash on the monitor - some days ago I connected for a while a mainboard of a 3032 (40 cols., no CRTC); it worked without problem (of course, messy image). I can't say if I used it again after this, so I don't know if it stopped to work after this test; - I checked the connectors with my multimeter and they seems to be ok;
I just have a multimeter (no scope, unfortunately) so I can't do any check in this way.
What could I check with a multimeter?
