    Problem with DSATX, NO LED, no shutdown.

    Hi all,
    I submitted this problem yesterday to support@mpegbox but haven't received a reply yet. I am really scratching my head over this.

    I am just setting up my carpc and stereo. I have:
    shuttle sk21g
    athlon sempron 2800
    2gb ddr400 memory
    hitachi 80GB. laptop HD
    panasonic slim slot load dvd/dvdrw
    xenarc 7" tsv.

    The power supply worked great when bench testing and also
    at first in the car when testing. I ran a couple of last tests and
    the led started flashing 5 times (over power or fault). so I disconnected
    all power to the cpu etc. and looked for anything that would case the
    fault as I hadn't added anything else (that would account for it being
    overpowered). After verifying that everything looked ok and there were
    no stray wires touching etc. I connected and powered up the cpu and
    noticed that there was now NO led lit on the DSATX. I didn't think much
    of it (thinking perhaps the LED was faulty) and finished my testing. I
    turned off the car and went inside. a couple of hours later I went outside
    and noticed that the pc and monitor were still on!

    so the power supply does provide power but it is no longer controlling shutdown/startup. Is this a known issue? (I have read a couple of similar
    threads but not quite the same).

    Have you sent a PM to zootjeff?
    He's pretty responsive about DSATX issues.
    Have you looked in the FAQ yet?
    How about the Wiki?



    Under normal circumstances, a signature would go here.

    Your power supply needs a firmware update.
