Appears (to my eye) to have a faulty voltage regulator on the motherboard,
but where? 19.5 VDC input from the AC adapter, but only 1VDC (slightly less
actually) available at the Power On switch (which I would expect to have at
least 5 VDC). Anybody have any idea how power is handled for these
critters? Model 305CRV. Can get SN if necessary. I somehow expected to
find something like a LM317, or at least a couple of 7805/7905 combinations.
Shows what I know about laptops. Any help is appreciated...

Thanks,

Dave
