Replacement for QP1008 (HP9816 PSU)

I asusme this is the SMPSU board in the metal case at one side of the machine, and not the +/-12V regulators on the monitor PCB. As you've probably noticed by now, this PSU was not made by HP. At least in my machine it was made byt 'Power/Mate'. Not that this helps very much. Nor can I. My guess is that the it's a 'house number', and that the trnasistor was selected for some particular characteristic. My furst guess would be a 2SC1942, since that seems to work in many small SMPUS, but don't blame me if it shorts at switch-on. And of course if it doesn't you won;t know if that was becuase it was an unsuitale transistor or because the origianl fault is still there. I would certainly check all the secondary-side rectifiers and smoothing capacitors. And the snuber componets (R6, CR4, C12, C3, CR5) I assume that some of the low-value resistors in the Q2's emitter circuit have burnt out too. Any open PCB traces? -tony
