Where to start to solve hardware problem?
Yesterday my * server (SuSE 9.2 pro on Athlon) just stopped, no screen, no reaction to keyboard or mouse. I get all kind of messages, or just stop during restart 1. just two lines of a code (immediately after turn on the computer) 113-AM21200-100-GB GV-RX30128D F1 2. Main Processor: AMD Athlon (tm) 64 Processor 3200+ <CPUID: 0FF0 Patch ID: 0041> and BIOS line 12/14/2004-NF-CK804-6A6IFG09C-00 and it stops here 3. No SATRaid found and it stops here 4. ... No disk reserved for RAID use, RAID disable (actually it meant computer disabled, and it stops here) 5. if I come to boot Linux, than it stops somewhere, with or without kernel panic. The most I came was: Excessive leakage detected on module 0:0 volts (00) after 162 ms ProSLIC module failed leakage test. Check for short circuit DC-DC cal has a surprising direct 107 of 0xff! ##### Loop error (ff) ##### ##### Loop error (ff) ##### ##### Loop error (ff) ##### ##### Loop error (ff) ##### ##### Loop error (ff) ##### ##### Loop error (ff) ##### ##### Loop error (ff) ##### !!!!!!!

Chicken or egg? Digium card or a result of another problem? Since I most of the time did not come so far. Any idea? I can immagine from all the errors I saw: 1. Motherboard is broken 2. CPU is broken 3. Power supply is broken (btw a very expensive one: 200 US$) What is your expert opinion??? Where and how to start to get back the system stabled. Yes, after 2 hours it booted again, but I worry, that it will happen anytime again. bye Ronald
Based on the various symptoms, I would suspect the motherboard first. Toshi On Tue, 2005-05-31 at 11:15 +0800, Ronald Wiplinger wrote:

It sounds like it could be thermal creep or something similar. Can you try all the separate components with another known to be good mobo? -- Take care. Kevan Farmer 34 Hill Street Cheslyn Hay Staffordshire WS6 7HR
