Hi
Yes ad acidchrist said : NEVER USE "La poste" (our postal service), it's very common to have our packages stollen/destroyed : one of my friend got his package crushed by a truck whell (yes you read well, they have ride there truck over it), and lots of packets are damaged (often heavily) ... well I got my revenge when I bought my Sun Blade 2000 :twisted: 32 Kg thrown from the 2nd floor must have done some effects on the other packages. Some of my packages never come too, they had just "disapeared" /s/disapeared/stollen (the Powermac was mine if you want to know).

Well Richtom1, what is the cost and the weight of your item ?

Hi all,
I have recently bought an Onyx deskside. I had to take it apart to get it on my bedroom and reassemble it.
But when I power it on, I win a superb "Blower failure" :shock: . The fan was not at all damaged, neither the wire, so I had good suspicion there was a problem with the system controller board. By looking at it, I have seen 2 stupid SMDs who have decided to not existe anymore, they are broken, literally :evil: . They are on the back of the board, and I know that one of them (m9b1b) is a bc807-5dz transistor. But for the other on (I think its named m8c5b), I don't know if it's another bc807-5dz or something totally different (the AZX SDMs for example).

So I would be glade if someone could give me an HD picture of the backside of the system controller board from an onyx or challenge deskside.

Thanks

Thank you, you've been a great help, i managed to find where to buy the needed components, i'll let you know how it goes when i receive them.

BTW, I will give you the links where I bought the components (In French sorry) :

PS : sybrfreq, your board is more explicite than mine about the name of the SMDs, it is the M7C5B instead of the m8c5b.
