+bf2k+ Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 I was just working with my SDrive Max (1050S) a little while ago when all of a sudden the screen went blank... turned white. Any ideas? SD Card looks OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to think that the Arduino is toast (based on the pilot errors I made with the external power supply and the little switch on the front.) (Ouch) Is it normally flashed thru the USB port on the device? If so, where is the flasher and firmware/software available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+bf2k+ Posted October 2, 2021 Author Share Posted October 2, 2021 Yes I found it... thanks. Plugging in the device does not load the drivers so I cannot select the COM port for the flash. This makes me think that VCC is correct - the Arduino is toast. Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 at least a replacement duino can be dirt cheap... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
