Hi everyone! I have an old pc that a friend asked me to check out for him, said it would not power up. Well, the power supply was shot, and I've been trying to find another one with no success. I've tried Google, and Ebay, even tried searching for the Fcc ID on Google, but it didnt match any documents. The following is all the info I have on this power supply:

File no: E127036
model: PS-180L
Input: 110V AC 5A 60Hz or 220V AC 3A 50Hz
AC OUTPUT:110V AC 2A 60Hz or 220V AC 1A 50Hz

There is a sticker that has this info:

SX-33
802579
PICA
SN:6002892
Made in China 92-2399-00

The computer says Laser 486SX on the front, with no other identifying marks. There is no power button anywhere on the pc at all. I assume it turns on when it is plugged in. Anyone have any idea where I can get a power supply to fit this dinosaur? It has the old 30 pin memory chips too. I can get those on eBay I know, so I'm not worried about them yet. Thanks for any help anyone can provide!

Hi Chris,interesting project you have there here`s what I found,PS-180L 4th item from bottom,right hand side.Clicking on the link takes you to a Item Quote Request Form.
1991: Intel introduces the 486SX, a lower priced 486 chip.
"The 386SX machines were never a very good idea for UNIX; the 16-bit bus-to-CPU path can choke your throughput. The 486SX is even worse,a stupid marketing crock with no technical justification whatsoever. It's a 486DX with the floating-point unit missing or even deliberately lobotomized out; the difference *will* bite you in unobvious ways, for example if you use X which does a lot of FP for graphics(One
respondent opined that "SX" is Intel-internal code for "sucks".)"
CPU:25MHz 486SX
RAM: 4 MB
HD: 210 MB
CD: 2x
COST: $1498
Intel 486SX CPU
just $5 while supplies last!

redder,
Thanks for those links, they give me some more history of this old dinosaur! LOL
A co-worker asked me to check these pc's out for him to see if I could set one up for his g/f's mother or grandmother, cant remember which, to play solitaire on, and other games. Thats about all they're good for these days anyway! haha!

chris

Looks like I'll have that power supply soon! I made arrangements to purchase it from the guy in that link! It should be here in a few days! Thanks alot for all the help!
