Re: mk2 upgrade

PSU making a ticking noise would tend to indicate that it is being overloaded.

Unplug the PSU connections from the RAMBo, turn on the power and see if the ticking persists.

Also check to see if the right AC voltage has been selected on the PSU.

I thought about that also, but as Gordon has upgraded from a Mk1, I doubt very much that he has changed the voltage setting during the upgrade process.

More likely that the 12V cables from the PSU have been damaged by an over-tight cable tie or been plugged into the wrong connectors on the RAMBo.
