Hi,

The power supply from my Sun has broken down. When I came into my
computer room I found it very quiet and I find out that the sun was
dead. 
I think that some condensator has burned out. When I turn the power on
the fan, that is the only part I have connected to the power supply,
wants to start but some how it just don't get enough power to start.
When I give the fan a turn with my finger it starts to run. Also there
is something on the power supply that click's al the time. When it
click's the power change from 12 V DC to 0 and back.
I think, but I don't know very mutch about this stuff, that because the
condensator is broken the power supply doesn't have enough power (A) to
start. Everytime when something pulls a lot of power the Volts go down.
I considering to buy a new power supply but what kind of supply do I
have to buy? I have a type 300-1055-07. When I look in a hardware faq I
don't find that type only the follow types:
300-1028     176W Sun-3 shoebox PS, 5 taps (California DC)
300-1045     134W Sun-3 shoebox PS, 4 taps (Computer Products
(Boschert))
300-1080     60W shoebox power supply
300-1105     44W shoebox power supply

Or do I need a other?
I live in the Netherlands so we have 220V here.
I got the types from the follow site:

I hope someone can help me.

Get in touch with Shahir Rajabzadeh (shahir@flash.net) - he has a bunch of
these power supplies (type 300-1055, which fit the 'lunchbox'-style cases
used for the IPC, IPX, LC and LX machine) for sale, so you can probably
arrange to buy one (or a couple) from him.

Regards,

Craig.
