Seems the PSU is dead on my ds10. I haven't done anything yet, and will go through the normal course of action in troubleshooting sometime this evening or tomorrow. I've never worked on a ds10 psu, so if you've experience with it(replacing fuse, whatever), let me know!

No tips, but I used to have a UP2000 which I think takes the same psu as a DS10. There's a DS10 PSU on ebay right now. Might be cheaper/easier to replace than to repair. I looked into custom PSU for these machines a few years back, and unfortunately, these machines are very heavy on the 3.3v rail, and light on 5v and 12v. Pretty much the opposite of what the peecee industry is doing, so there is no COTS product that can be modified to work, unfortunately.
