It wasn't until I put my 25 ohm and 150 ohm resistor in that I tried it.
The Voltage was actually too low. I've been paraleling resistors since then to try and get it up.
Voltage doesnt go anywhere near 400 anymore though. Which is a big releif


I only really have 2 problems now.
The screen is too wide
And the top looks a incy bit stretched. Other than that all seems well.

Once you get the power supply fixed (and take the time to do it right!),
you will learn to use the width (R-452) and height (R-421) controls
to adjust those things as needed. Good night.
