    F1 error could be: "Clamps are not secured", "Short circuited" or "reverse polarity". But none of those should be the issue.
    "Smart charger" well that is probably the definition of the word oxymoron if you look it up in a dictionary!
    If you have a "stupid" charger then try that, if not it might be worth getting one.
    (You know the old kind with a big chunky transformer inside )

    Edit, something like this:

      Good point. I'll see if I can get my hands on an old school used one for cheap (I'm in Norway, not Sweden btw. )

      If I need to get a new one, do you know if this would do the trick? It's the only "old school" new charger I've found:

        That looks like it would be based on an old iron transformer since it weights 2.3KG.
        So I'd say that is a proper charger

          Did you manage to revive it? I have the same ups in the same state. Batteries are definitely dud but from the manual I believe this should power up even with no batteries. Wondered how u got on.

            No, not yet. I did get my hands on a non-smart charger, but the batteries are dead. I am pretty sure new batteries will solve it, and I will buy new at some point and report back here.

            Not sure when though, I don’t really need the UPS, it’s just a nice to have.

              Palit GTX 980TI working via a riser but not in x16 slot
              by mmx01
              Hi,

              Interesting case, I have a gtx 980ti which suffered typical drmos failure. I replaced it together with 12V PEX switching transistors, all blown fuses etc. No shorts on vcore, vmem, pex or any other rails.

              Yet the card does not give any sign of life when plugged into pcie x16 slot unless I plug it in via a mining riser?! I was troubleshooting it using riser as it is easier to measure etc. It worked so I assembled the card put in the computer and no post. When I move it to the riser it works again.

              Checked all voltages on PCIE finger 12V, 3V3 while...

              HP 15 EPK50 LA-G07EP not starting up on battery?
              by SuperAman
              Hi guys, I got an HP 15 mobo # EPK50 LA-G07EP rev 2.0 not starting up on battery? Recently the battery completely died, wouldn't hold a charge, so I used it for like 3 or 4 days until I ordered a new battery. I ordered a new "OEM" battery and replaced it. It wouldn't start with new battery, figured it was dead and plugged it up and powered it on to see that new battery was like 60% charged. So it seems It won't start on battery if it is not plugged in. It charges fine and lets me use it while not plugged in. If I use it and shut it down and try to power it back on it'll start from power...

              iMac (2012 model) A1419, EMCNo: 2639 not starting up
              by Braith
              Hi, EMC 2639 .iMac not starting up. Single dim diagnostic LED (LE0301) flashes off briefly when power button pressed. Working through supply rails at present (PP5V_S5 appears shorted to ground but still early days)

              Using Boardview 820-4652 but not sure if that is correct one to use. Have searched Forum but only found bios found for 2639 so far.
              Have also tried 820-00134-08 and 820-3478 but have noticed discrepancies compared to my board.

              If anyone has correct BOARDVIEW and SCHEMATIC for a EMC 2639 I would really appreciate it before I get too far into this.

              Weired MSI B560M PRO (MS-7D20) - not starting with 11-th gen. CPU, 10-th gen. OK
              by DynaxSC
              Hi,

              I have a very weired problem with MSI B560M PRO (MS-7D20), board is upgraded to the latest BIOS version v1.9.

              The board is normally starting with 10-th gen. CPU, ie. Intel Comet Lake i5-10600K and Celeron G5905.

              However if I install a 11-th gen. Rocket Lake i5-11600K the board powers up, but is immediately stuck on CPU LED, not progressing further. Debug card shows FF, and after restart with long short of Power Button: FE, which is as usually of no help (Reserved for future AMI error codes).

              According to MSI compatibility site the board supports...

              Gigabyte Aorus X470 not starting randomly..
              by stormanimal83

              still trying to fix my aorus from ebay. had a question about bios functions some time ago. but bios is not the solution in my case as i mentioned first...

              The board is randomly not turning on especially when is was without power for longer periode of time... it can last at least one hour to get it running.

              i dont know how to fix that. its like a dead capacitor issue because if i´m patient enough i get it always up and running. i managed ti install new windows 11 to ssd few minutes ago.

              few pictures..
