I have a zephyr that previously ran XBR fine then just randlomly died. I have a question thou.
When you turn it on do the fans make a strange noise? IE: they keep bursting in speeds on boot up, you have to listen carefully for it thou.
Dont know how to explain it but instead of the fan noise being a constant whrrrrrr its like whrrrrbrrrrrrrrbrrrrrbrrr like a pulse in speed.
Dont know if it has anything to do with it but i just wondered if anyone elses did it. I have not tried flashing falcon or flashing it back to stock as its just a spare board really.
i have one thats a real PITA and yes my fans do this... its something in the programing, i have flashed with XBR1 and 3, same issues, if i boot with eject button it boots Xell just fine and fans run a smooth normal speed, if i boot with normal power it always codes on the screen e74 or e79 and the fans pulse as you have described, im stumped, but i dont know much either as this is my first jtag attempt, i do know its a exploitable cb though because i checked, everything is flashed properly and everything checked it just doesnt work for some reason, have had a chance to try 330ohm resistor but i dont have much faith in this board anymore
