MEGA 180 WONT START UP, HELP PLEASE.

I have a mega pc 180 and the first problem is the LCD wont work, Tried flashing it with no luck.
The main problem is after its been switched on for about 30 - 60 mins if i shut it down and leave it for about 5 mins it wont switch back on again, then if i leave it and try it the next day it will switch straight on.
The cpu temp is on 35 which is good so dont think it overheating. All i can think of is its a dodgy power supply or maybe the power supply is overheating.
When it wont switch on theres must be some power there as the HIFI led comes on green and i can hear the power go to the cdrom.
Any help would be appreciated, dont really want to package it all back up and send it back.
Cheers

When it won't start up does anything appear on the boot screen ? For instance does it detect video ? Does it detect CPU ? Does it detect memory ? Does it detect disks ?  These all output info to the screen while the system is booting and can give a clue as to where the problem is.
Something to try the next time it won't start..... Remove the power plug from the walll...wait 10 seconds... plug it back in and see if that helps. Much easier than waiting 24 hours if it works. I have to do this a couple times a week. Although I have never found a repeatable sequence that causes it to fail. It never the less fails often enough to be a pain. And when it does fail the HIFI works just fine.
Good luck

  • Ipod touch screen is black and wont start up, help please

    My ipod touch has a black screen and wont respond. HOw can I restart it?

    Hold the sleep button and home button for 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears. If it's not showing, plug your iPod into a power source to ensure the battery isn't completely flat.

    itunes wont install, runtime error R6034 also 'apple mobile device' wont start! help!

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

    I am receiving email that I should verify my password for iCloud but I can't see the link that I should start. HELP please!!!!!!

    You select the desired file (tick the square box on the left of the file name).
    You click on the "share"/"send" icon (the envelope with the arrow that points up and to the right).
    You are presented with the share/send dialog.
    Here you select the "Send To" choice.
    This is done by placing a tick in the box beside either "Public Link (create a public link for anyone to view)"
    OR
    "Personalizdd Link (send email invitations to individuals)"
    NOTE: The second choice is only available if you have a subscription to Adobe Send service.
    So, for a free "Files" account in Adobe's cloud you'd tick "Public Link".
    At the bottom left you'll observe the "Create Link" button.
    Click it.
    You are presented with a new dialog that informs you that the Public Link has been generated and that link is provided in a field within the dialog.
    You can copy the link to a text file for future copy-paste into a post to a forum or bulletin board or you can provide the link to otheres via an email.
    Be well...

  • HT1750 New batteries in pad and keyboard but wont connecton start up - help please.....

    Can someone help me, I have an imac and it suddenly wont recognise the wireless keyboard and tracker pad. Have just replaced batteries and hard resarted the mac but wont work. I have tried another wireless mouse which works but dont have another keyboard. It is password protected so cant get in to do urgent work. Help please.

    Hello,
    You could try booting from the install disk #1 (holding down the "C" key while starting up with the disk in) that came with it and then running disk utility to repair the disk. Then restart.
    Booting into safe mode (holding the shift key right after the startup tone) and then after it comes up in safe mode, restarting can also help this issue.
    Booting into single user mode and running fsck may also help..

    Hopefully it is just a simple error on your HD that is causing this problem.
    (if you have already done all this before posting, i apologize for suggesting the obvious first... im new to this board and just trying to help!)
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Mega 865 DVD RW drive - HELP PLEASE

    Hello again been a long time since i have been here.  Anyway the reason im back is that my DVD RW (NEC 2500A) is getting "Power callibration" errors when burning .. tried all the new firmwares etc so looks like the drive is dead..
    Now my question is .. what drive can i get to replace is .. i.e is the NEC 3550A good etc... or is there better onces...
    I remember about a year or so ago there was a list on here but couldnt find it ( i did try and search)
    Any help please
    Thanks

    "Power calibration" errors can be caused by a failing drive, or by using bad media. also, have you tried using a DVD head cleaning disc, in case the lens is dirty?

  • My ibook wont start..HELP

    my ibook wont start up properly it either tells me to restart or the screen freezes so i have to restart it never makes it to the login screen...what should i do??

    Hello Isabel,
    If you have any additional RAM installed remove it and see if it will start. Defective RAM can cause kernel panics and so can a loose AirPort card. Here are the instructions for removing/adding RAM.

  • I uninstalled older version of Itunes because for some reason it wouldn't start. I installed new version 10.7 for 64 bit (windows 7) and it WONT RUN either. help please

    I couldn't get my 10.6 version of Itunes to open, so I uninstalled it. Installed newer version 10.7 for 64 bit (windows 7) and it won't run either. Please help?

    Many thanks.
    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

    (If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

  • HT201401 Iphone wont start, issue! Please help

    Iphone is detected in iTunes, and a recovery mode is detected, but the phone just wont power up, even after hours of wall charging.. Please help

    You say Recovery Mode is detected by iTunes. Restore the Firmware with iTunes, when done, it will be obvious if Restore was successful. If not, there will be Error Code which you can look up solution. If Restore fails iPhone is most likely beyond repair. If Restore is successful, but screen is still not functioning, either screen is faulty or Logic Board display controllers are faulty, try entire front screen assembly replacement. During all this if you decide iPhone is broken, replacement at Apple Store is only $149, unless you have Warranty or AppkeCare Coverage which it will be free.
