I´m not even kidding, a lot of the times i start my MD it just starts with a garbled screen.
If i switch it off and give it a good pat on its back it´s back to normal until the next time it fails, sometimes soon, sometimes it works for weeks without a hitch.
i opened it to reseat all connection headers but this doesn´t seem to help.
I´m against this violence but i have no idea what the problem could be, any idea would be greatly appreciated. OS is the latest version by the MegaCommand Guys and i have a MegaCommand connected as well but it doesn´t make any difference whether the MegaCommand is connected or not.
Don’t spank your MD…could be a PSU or power board issue or a connector/cable. Or maybe it’s the display. Does it work with a garbled screen or does it not fully boot?
No it doesn´t work with the garbled screen. the other day it froze during playing with it and after i turned it off and on again it would show me the same screen it had when it crashed.
I forgot to mention, i tried the built in hardware tests and it showed no problems.
Might be the British climate, but I get through two of these every 18 months or so. They get completely full.
Never had issues with oxidisation. Closer to the equator I imagine this is harder to mitigate.
Close to the equator you would typically get over 2 liters a day out of a freestanding electric dehumidifier. Aircon is the best option. I do worry about my machines…
