The act of removing the supply and letting it cool can cause a number of other things to show up.  Given its age, there are likely "cold" solder joints that wouldn't show up until cool.

Sounds like good advice.

My DS10 sits idle and powered down far, far more than I would like, partly because I'm afraid every time that I power it up, the power supply will blow. (Also, I admit, because of lack of time to do all the fun things I'd like to be doing with it.)
