Hello again!
I had posted a question here regarding a problem with my Wyse 99GT terminal.
Basically, the terminal has lost the horizontal drive, when you turn it on
there is just a vertical line going thru the middle of the screen. The lineis
darker where there would have been text etc.

Well, several of you responded that it is either a loose solder or a blown
capacitor. How can one spot a blown capacitor? I opened it up and there does
not seem to be any visual indication that any of the caps have gone. How can
one isolate the problem device?

Again, please send replies to govindg@ucunix.san.uc.edu
