tomcctv 190 Posted January 3, 2023 Hi what happens if you remove a cables and also disconnect the hard drive…. Does it still boot up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark_M 3 Posted January 4, 2023 As tomcctv is hinting to, I also think it maybe a power supply issue. tomcctv is suggesting to unplug many devices so there is less power being used from the plug adaptor. Working for a while then failing is a sign the power supply is likely dying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By chance what electtrical components offer the power to drive and are they replaceable or isn’t it worth it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
