    I just picked up a machine and the dmd has what looks like two dotted vertical lines. What is the likely cause of this?

    Yeah I did that, but I'm gonna replace the ribbon cables with a known working cable after work today and see if that helps.

    Ok, I've figured out that the problem is with the power supply board, not the dmd itself or the ribbon cables. Any thoughts on where to go next?

    Yes, that is what I mean. Thanks for info, I'll definitely look at replacing the ic and hope that does it.

    Thanks Maniac, I replaced the ram chip and the dmd is working fine.
