Shouldn't do. The VT100 power supply has overcurrent protection and will 
shut down without damage if the load (video board, etc) is shorted.

Does this supply work at all? Are you getting any output voltages from it?

Have you checked the resistors (out of circuit -- that is with one end 
desoldered from the PCB) to see if they are burnt out (open circuit), or 
wildly different resistance from the value specified by their colour 
bands/markings?
