Hello!

I am working on a Time Warp and I have noticed that the Driver Board gets incredibly hot to the point its smoking.

Does anyone have any experience with why this might be happening? And also if you have a schematic for Time Warp I'd be very grateful to get a copy!

Cheers,

Amoskeag

if it suits you could change from incandescent globes to LEDS to reduce the current

The resistors are getting Hot because the Cpu is not booting,

Disconnecting the Lamp 18V connector with the blue wires located at the bottom right corner of the driverboard will stop the resistors from overheating until the cpu could boot again.
