Mariano DM Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 The adventure continues. I was able to prepare the SD card and boot with UltraSatan, but my box is dying randomly. Apparently this is a symptom of bad capacitors. Ill keep a look at the guides for replacing the PSU components. But any pointers/tips would be appreciated. Cheers.

Mariano DM Posted June 3, 2019 Author Share Posted June 3, 2019 This looked promising until the computer started shutting down randomly. Ive seen some replacement PSU around, but most of them are from UK, probably wont work with USA 120V power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
