Hi lads,
flytech k795
Just looking for a general piece of advice. I have this PC / Touch Monitor / all in one thing that is used in a factory that I do contract work for... It stopped coming on after an electrical storm and they asked me to have a look at it... out of warranty, and the company Flytech have not responded to any of my emails. So I pretty much have free reign to have a bash at fixing it, so I'm gonna try for the experience.
Now when I got this thing on my desk, I plugged it in and nothing happened.. It has a 19v 4.24A power supply (like a regular laptop power supply but with two sources for the PC and the scree), which I borrowed from a working K795 78.. so I know that this bit is working.
No signs of life when I hit the power button, no LEDs, no fan noise, no screen display, no POST... I went off to do something, came back 20 mins later and there it was booted up !! And this is the behaviour that it displays every time... Then it stays running.
- If you reboot it (warm boot), it comes back up straight away.
- But if you switch it off and leave it to cool down for about forty minutes, it again takes another twenty to boot. And once it boots it's fine.
I dont have any pictures yet, but just looking for what approach you would use to solving this. I have my own suspicions, but I would appreciate opinions from anybody who has had success overcoming a similar fault.
thanks,
