Hi Guys Well I've noticed a weird problem....seems that my computer downstairs won't control certain "radio" buttons in the program. Seems to be all the bottom ones like play etc, CH1 CH4, 4 cut etc. I can use the program top buttons like sys config, snap shot etc. I've tried re-installing several times and used diff versions, using 1.0.6.3 now. I use the same on laptop and everything works...very strange...

Hey Guys...thanks for your time here. I fixed it by loading windows again fresh onto a new partition...it works as it should in the fresh windows load. So now I have a dual boot sys and when I boot the old windows up it's same prob? If I think back....I can't think of any one day when it stopped working for the bottom buttons but it's def a windows problem. If I find out why I'll drop a line to explain...thanks again. Dave

Well...I changed res with no luck and tried manually removing the software, even went to reg edit and removed the AVTECH and reloaded video viewer just to try and same problem. I'll try the java re-install...had a look at my firewall too

Hey thanks for the ideas guys, yea it's strange because I can control everything with a different computer. Got to be something with the computer as video viewer does same thing. I'll try some of your suggestions and see what I come up with, already checked the java and it's up to date...never tried adjusting the res or manually removing old video e server...I'm an IT and Electronics Tech so I'll do my best and get back. Thanks again.

PM sent....waiting reply.thanks

Hi guys, Looking for a power supply board for the 760 from AVTECH. Part number from the board is AVTECH 760P V05A. It got fried from a cooling fan that wanted too much current, now L3 gets hot and the DVR just beeps. Any ideas or parts for me much appreciated...

Thanks

Hey thanks for reply....if I had the time I could thevenize the cct but most of the time it is more than it's worth because the individual parts can be hard to get. Most of the time a known semiconductor will become obsolete in as little as a few years. Maybe I'm just spoiled with the Mil spec gear Yes you are correct Kiwi...it takes 19Vdc in and provides 5/12Vdc for the HD and 3.3/5/12 Vdc to the board. Dave

Another option is to find a used laptop supply, make sure to get close to the voltage and check polarity.

Good info...tks

Old saying......buy cheap.....buy twice

Heat and non-filtered power would be major factors. Try a scope on the drive power....it will show whats going on.

Thanks for info

Hey....I did not say I was buying based on the engineering level ! I did however indicate that a small (40mm) fan drawing only a few ma should not toast the power supply. This is based on my experience as a military electronics technician for the past 19/20 years. I think the wife’s vibrator can do better than that There are better machines out I agree, but none for this average value as you indicated. Wondering if there are any dealers out there who can supply parts for these machines ? Drop a line guys if you have any old/new parts please. Thanks in advance...

Hi Scorpion, Nope....this one was already fixed once...I updated the firmware and it went bad....seller got factory to send a new main board...all was well until I decided to add the fan. Now the machine just beeps and L3 on the power board gets quite hot...did manage to find another seller who can get me the power board....seems my orginal sellers email is broke. You know what the say...talk is cheap ! I'll let you guys know how I make out with this beast...seems to be poorly engineered though as the power board went down in a flash even though the board has a fan connector and the case had a spot too. Thanks ....Dave G
