Don't cheat on the parts:

r14107       244214    43ohms
r14109       179317    1/4w 750ohms 5%
r14108        244215    .1ohm 3W
q14101        244223
q14102        147665
q14103        232218
q14106        215495    smd, maybe bad
q14107        215495   smd, maybe bad
q14108        215496
u14101        223653
u14102        231525

The failure was probably caused by u14102.  This is a precision reference
IC.  Although the opto-isolator is probably good for the buck it costs it
isn't worth the gamble.  Also, very carefully check all of the pins on the
switchmode transformer, ensuring that the traces are good.

This power supply needs about 80vac to run.  It is a frequency modulated
regulator.
