Death On Arrival & Long Flight
« on: June 30, 2004, 02:50:14 AM »
Hello

After waiting for 4 months, my new PC motherboard had arrived from UK (16 hours flight). Unfortunately there is no beep, no light, no post, no BIOS, no HD/CD activity.

Anyone have similar experience?
What is the cause of this problem:
1. Extreme temperature on Cargo bay.
2. Shock during takeoff & landing.
3. Cosmic radiation.
4. X-Ray Inspection
5. Bad quality of components.
6. Bad luck.

Will the same problem occur on MicroA1 shipment from UK to Asia?
Thank you.

Hi
Thank's for the reply.
The problems:
1. On-Off switch button.
2. Defective / damaged RAM module.

Now half of my PC (Via Epia TC 6000E Mini ITX) is OK.

For the other half, I plan to install Micro A1 (mini ITX) from Eyetech in the same PC case (600 MHz G3, without fan).

I plan to run both X86 + PowerPC together and run the same program on top of AmigaDE/Intent + Linux, similar to my X86 + PowerPC combo project 10 years ago.

Is the consumer / end user version of Micro-A1 already available?
