Here's a description of the unit and what happens ;
On the rear of the unit it has a Quantum label that has model number 70700042-004 together with MAC address and serial number.
Inside the unit it has a label from TRIMM Technologies with Model number H446.
I have placed a known working WD 20gig drive ( which has been zeroed ) in the cradle nearest to the PSU and connected the cable going from IDE1 port.
The IDE cable connecting the drive goes on IDE1 on the mobo and I am using the other end of the cable ( usually for connecting a hdd set to master ) , the HDD is set to master with a jumper !
I connect just the main IEC power cable and the unit doesn't do anything until I press the power button on the front.
When I press the power button on the front the rear fan spins , the CPU fan spins and I can hear the HDD spin up.
All the LEDs on the front ( System , Link , Net and Disk ) don't light up even after 5 mins , I can however get the link light to light up by connecting a network cable form the Snap Server to my home network.
After looking at the lights for about 5 mins I press the power button briefly and nothing happens , if I hold the power button down for 10 seconds still nothing happens ( fans still spinning ! )
The only way I can get the unit to power down is to remove the main IEC power cable from the back of the unit.
I have noticed that when the HDD spins up I can't hear the disk tracking ( as it would when access data ).
I have removed and replaced the CPU and the memory with working items and haven't had any more luck so I have put the original items back in, of course I observed all anti-static precautions 8).
I have tried the HDD as Cable select and have put it in different positions in the unit and it still doesn't do anything more
Can you guys think of anything else? as I'd love to get this unit working , I don't mind buying a new mobo that much it's just that the shipping from America to Oz is very expensive
Cheers Guys !
