Ok, I'm no electrical wiz.  I have an old computer that wants 220.  First
of all, I got this computer without the 3-prong plug (it'd been cut off).
Without paying attention to the "220" which was written on the transformer
inside, I wired a plug onto the power cord and plugged it in.  Needless to
say the unit didn't come on, but I'm hoping that it didn't mess anything
up.  I wouldn't think it did.
Anyway, what can I do to run this thing off of 110?  The transformer has a
solid black lead going to the black wire of the power cord (through the
switch), a black lead with a white stripe looped back into the xformer via
a white lead, and a blue lead with a white stripe connected to the red
wire of the power cord (through the switch with an inline fuse...the fuse
is fine).
The side connected to the cpmputer board has a rainbow of seven colored
wires in the order (from left to right): brown, red, orange, yellow,
green, blue, violet.
1547 is stamped on the transformer. ?.
I'd like to make this run off 110 without having to modify the actual unit
itself.
