My guess, since the lights flickered-is you have a lose wire or connection in your POWER cord to that machine...and when running, it might be jiggling it just enough to break the connection long enough to send a 'disconnected from master' signal or whatever it gives for a message. For simple diagnostic to start...pull the plugs on both, compare ends...any loose 'plug pins' comparing one to the other? Is the cord yanked out of the plug-wires showing? If yes-replace the male plug and or the entire length of cord back to the box in the amaya. Nothing different here? Check the outlet itself...plug in a desklight or something easy to one outlet, wiggle it around-then switch to the other one. I've had outlets go 'bad' just on one side-drives you nuts thinking you've lost power to the box when the other outlet hole works. Nothing here? Then you've ruled out the easy stuff. Double check your 'network' cord next, if you have a spare, try that one. See if wiggling the original first makes the lights blink or computer error window come up. Nothing happening here? Then it's beyond my ability...but as far as I would go with trouble shooting. Unfortunately, might be time to call the tech! Hope some of this helps and you find the problem! But chances are good, all this is the first thing a tech is going to check out... =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
