Right, so I dig out my Peg2, used it perfectly fine about 3 months ago, and after about 10 minutes the OS froze, and wouldn't boot up again.
Messed around with it a bit and found out it was dead stable when I put a fan pointing at the CPU/Motherboard, take it away, and the heat sink gets hot and it freezes won't boot up again. Same with both MorphOS and Am*gaOS4.1.
The fan on the CPU is working, it's a replacement but it's been on it, for like years. I think it's the CPU running hot than it should, rather than a problem with the cooling, I'll double check but I think the heatsink is making good contact to the CPU.
Can this get fixed? I've vague memories of something like this happening before, and someone fixing it?
