Hello All,
2 things,
I got 2 FV 24 MB, and found the caps were bad. Bulging, leaking, and no boot, or any response when attempting to start it. Only thing that happened was the led on the boards lit, and the CPU fans spun.
I went and recapped both, however, I still had the same issues, no boot, no video, no bios beep, just led light and spinning fan.
I ended up selling one to someone in Florida. He called me a couple days later and said, Hey, I just plugged it in and it worked perfectly. Damn I said. Asked him how it got it to work, and he basically said, I did nothing.
Now, perhaps my PS and my Monitor are bad, but they both work with my other Desktop systems and Laptops.
I can't figure it out at all. Anyone have any ideas?
I have reset the bios multiple times, I have unplugged the IDEs, tried reseating the BIOS, I am gonna try using PS2 mouse and KB (I tried with a PS2 KB and USB mouse).
I am stumped. The guy in florida is willing to buy the second one I have, but I would rather get it to work.
OR
If someone wants to sell me a working FV24, if you have one, or know of a source of one on the Net, that would be great also.
Thanks in advance for the help.
Michael
