For three days over the weekend my whole computer closed down and would not re boot. If I switched off the mains and waited for the pwr LED to go out and switch on, the whole computer started to boot up for 5 secs and then stopped dead and the on switch at the front of the case would not work. After asking online for help about the board nothing helped. I suspected a corrupt bios or the battery near it and online they thought it was the power pack. I even checked the on switch to see if it was jammed on and merely switching the computer off as soon as it started. Switch is OK. Two days later when I was putting back the mini switch board it has somehow corrected it self and booted up. However twice it it has closed down with a momentary error notice that of system error and a second later closing down quickly and then not rebooting. It now seems to be stable again but again I twice got system errors "internal" mentioning exfat fuse executable path /sben/mount.exfat. It said report it to Ubunto so I clicked on that but have no idea whether it is related to the closing down and not rebooting: these times it did not close down. As all the internal or built in hardware lights up I don't think it is power pack. I cannot afford to upgrade my whole computer and there is only ONE new motherboard with an am2 socket I don't want to renew even this if it is something other than an intermittent fault on the M/board.On 26/09/12 19:33, Peter M Le Mare wrote:On 26/09/12 17:16, bad apple wrote:On 26/09/12 14:32, Peter M Le Mare wrote:
