Minimum daughter boards/peripherals required for main board to boot
02-13-2021, 10:44 PM
Hello everyone!
I'm trying to work out why my PBP won't power on/boot anymore.
I'm at the stage where I've disconnected everything from the main board and using the bypass rather than battery.
If I power it through the barrel port, nothing seems to happen. CPU remains cold even if I leave it plugged in for a while. Hitting the 'reset' button also seems to do nothing.
What daughter boards/peripherals need to be connected for the main board to power/boot? For example, do I need to have the keyboard connected for it to boot?
Thanks
PS At present I can't test any voltages, currents etc until Monday evening because my fluke is at work. I might even have to wait until Thursday because of recent COVID19 lockdowns being imposed.
