Mine died about 2 months ago. I took it to Jaycar Electronics and
bought a new PS for about $20.00.
Does not get any easier than that.

I had a similar problem described in this thread. After two and a half
years, the SB3 is suddenly dead. Logitech phone support said since
there's no repair facility in Australia and the unit is out of
warranty, it's a write off.
So I thought I might as well crack the case open and see if it was

Just a followup post to my previous one.
After contacting technical support I sent the squeezebox and power
supply to the US from Sydney for about $65. A bit less than 2 weeks
later I received my unit back again - apparently there was a problem
with the power supply.
All is well now.

Is this a Serious question?
In case it is, the answer is "not hardly."
I have a SqueezeBox 1, non-G that works perfectly. There are many folks
with SliMP3 that work. I don't know how old a SB1 is, but i
Just to add another 'me too' voice: my SB3 is coming on to be 2 years
old and it's recently started randomly reseting itself, about once
every 24-48 hrs at the moment.
Is 2 years of life all we should be expecting from slim devices
hardware?

This must be a pandemic!
I am also in Sydney and my Squeezebox (v3) just died yesterday (8th Feb
2008). It was two years and one month old.
Mine didn't die overnight though. Its been going down intermittently
for the past fortnight. At the time I thought it was just suffering
from local wireless

Well, I had contact with the Slim Devices support. The repair alone is
going to set me back USD 90, but on top of that, I need to get it to
the US. This is very disappointing, as with the Logitech acquisition,
one might hope a more global service.

I'm in Sydney too. Just returned from holidays tonight and found my

I also run a server and a Tivo - both OK. From the logs the SB died
sometime in the 24 hours after 4pm on Christmas Eve. Very sad.
I bought mine 18 months ago online in the US so will try out the two

Just thought I would let you know that I have 2 SB3's and they have both
failed, I havent used them this month, we went to use them a couple of
days ago, and they are both dead.
I'm als in Sydney (balmain). But I dont think its thunder. I am
suspecting a firmware issue.
Anyway, I am about to

Sounds like an issue I had as well, with an out of warranty SB3, Do a
search here I came up with a thread that discussed removing the wirless
card from the unit, mine sprang back into life and now works fine in
wired mode via homeplugs. Obviously this needs to be done at your own
risk. You'll nee
Hi Adrian,
Exactly the same happened with me yesterday. The unit is still dead. I
have logged this with support via this site, and the team is

It is strange, because I just have it 2 years (almost to the day)
without any problems. I think i
Your best bet is to phone or email Slim Devices tech support. Even
though this users' forum is good, the actual support staff is better
positioned to walk you through diagnosing the issue and figuring out
what to do. See this link for support contact info:

Does anybody have any ideas?
The display on my squeezebox is blank and stays blank.
I've switched it on and off at the power socket. Held the POWER button
down for 5 seconds on the remote. Rebooted the slimserver (it's working
'cause I can access it via SoftSqueeze) and reset the wifi network
