Re: Thomson TO8 - no picture - Update 13.08.16 - broken PSU
As i said ... yes i will try it, but anyway ... are there big differences between the MO6 und the TO8 psu?
Re: Thomson TO8 - no picture - Update 13.08.16 - broken PSU
The two power supplies are very different, however it is possible to power the TO8 with the MO6 PSU, since it produces +5V and +12V with different but roughly consistent current.
You will have hard times to fit the MO6 board into the TO8 box, drill holes for the power switch and screws, find the connector...
This new computer should be named MO8 or TO6, as you like.

@ TrainingForUtopia, if it helps to repair, in this topic you can see pictures of a fixed board. Initially it is not broken, just cracked, but the principle remains the same.

Thanks @fneck.
I'll receive my 2 component epoxy resin glue tomorrow for fixing the pcb. After that i try to solder the broken tracks. Maybe i'll post some pics after a possible success.

I bought another TO8, but this one works. The condition of the case isn't that good, so i'll put all the hardware in the restaurated case of the broken one. But i'll try to fix the old one, when i've time ... maybe when i'm dead ...
