Shuttle SN45G v2 ich bein shiztnerfrizzle!

dangel · 16-06-2005, 16:42

Had my shuttle server drop dead on me yesterday - got frantic call from wife @ home and said i'd look when i came back. It's got me this one:

Symptoms: no boot, no screen, no idea. Power comes on, machine is crashed tho as it takes ~5 secs of holding the power button to shut it down again.

Checked:

1. CPU. a-ok
2. memory a-ok
3. graphics - agp card replaced with working one, no difference. built in graphics dead too.
4. psu - subsitituted working one, no difference.

Current thinking: dead motherboard = new shuttle.

I've got a new one on the way (v3 this time) but it'd be nice to resurrect this one before i give up and sell it for parts

fritzed BIOS?

Yeah, I'd agree, it may be the BIOS. My friend had an Abit NF7-S that had the BIOS go on it...he got a new chip, (free from Abit, with an $11 shipping fee!

) put it in, and it worked fine. It has to be the MoBo that is bad. The only other thing that could be a problem is the PSU. Have you tested that too?

Well i figured it out, after buying a new one

Turns out it's a dead cpu - but it's intermittantly dead, so sometimes it comes on (about 1 in 10 times).. Looks like i'll have a shuttle to sell now !
