Hi gang... Last night I powered down my home web server SE/30 in order to install a DiiMO/50 accelerator. It wouldn't boot. No fan, beeps, no power at all! I pulled the card out and tried again, to make sure the power supply hadn't died coincidentally, and it booted right up.
Any thoughts what might be causing this? I doubt it's an issue with the power supply being too meager. I've heard of people stacking a NIC, accelerator, and Xceed and still getting enough power. The space is rather tight, with the DiiMO almost touching the frame on on side, drive bracket on the other, and monitor in front, so I've wondered if I could be shorting something? I've lined potential contact points with electrical tape. The connection with the right-angle adapter is as good as I can make it, and the RAA is secure in the NIC too. Last time I used the DiiMO it was good, and it's been wrapped in anti-static bags since then. So any suggestions would definitely be appreciated. This was supposed to be a quick operation to speed up my web server, not to keep it offline. :( Thanks, Tim -- Tim Larson ><> 402.998.3233 Systems Analyst Web Center of Excellence mail stop 7350-140 ConAgra Foods, Inc. -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
