NEC original power adapter AD-IF30A, good for Grafx?

[grimm]

Hi, i bought the above mentioned power adapter from japan as part of a misc. order, and when it arrived it says CDROM on the box? I am not too familiar with PC engine hardware, and i dont know if this is the power adapter i need for my original Grafx(1). If someone could let me know id be greatful.

Other info other than the model number in topic, would be Output DC9V 1450mA.

Thanks and regards,
grimm

PS. i was unsure where to out this thread, please move it if necessary.

if your not concerned with having an original, this site is a good source for adapters at a decent price.  Radio shack has nice ones too.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

No i appreciate your info even if it was "bad", id rather know before i hurt the console.

I do have a generic adapter for it already, but people have mentioned it may be the source of some really bad noises i get when i play certain games, especially New Zealand Story, the noises hurt my ears so i bought the adapter in hopes to use it and see if it would change somehow.

I do own a Trio adapter from retro game cave, and the guy is really nice to communicate with, so i may go that route as well..
