Title: Unreliable A4000
Post by: Robert17 on December 23, 2004, 09:11:18 PM

Hey all, my A4000 is kinda quirky, sometimes it boots first time... others I just get a black screen and can't get the pre menu or the csppc menu... any ideas?

Does it boot ok with none of the extra expansion cards in?

I've not tried it yet to be honest, but last night I was using it for a couple of hours and it was fine...

It either has something to do with your power supply, motherboard, RAM, expansion cards, or some other component directly hooked to your system.

Hey, ask a vague question, get a vague answer.  ;-)

Looks like it's my CSPPC, taken everything out and nothing with just that  :-(
