Flashing LED (orange -> green -> orange -> ...)
Posted: Tue Feb 03, 2015 6:33 pm
Hello, my Fit-PC4 has stopped working... again.
I already had some troubles last summer (http://www.fit-pc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=125&t=5378), than after it has been repaired it worked very well.
My only configuration issue was actually with audio via HDMI, which is a bit creepy (I'm using an up-to-date Debian Jessie).
Since yesterday, the unit stopped working altogether: it didn't boot anymore, no video signal and the front LED is costantly flashing from orange to green to orange... Of course I've removed the power supply now.
I haven't removed the RAM banks or the hard disk, neither I've already tried to reset the BIOS. As soon as possible I will try all the suggestions here: http://www.fit-pc.com/wiki/index.php/Fi ... leshooting.
It's just annoying that this unit, which is enourmously under-stressed (I use it as a kind of "home theater PC", not every day and of course in the confort of a living room without any climate extreme), is possibly broken for the second time in less than one year
Any hints?
