Gidabyte GA-EX58-UD5, Diamond 4890 XOC 1Gig, 1.5TB Windows 7, 1.5TB 10.5.8, 300GB Snow, DD 4.0.
No sound but otherwise rock solid. I installed Final Cut Studio 2009, Logic, iLife 09, iWork 09. All running good. So I decide to to hook up my main Mac, QuickSilver, in target disk mode and as soon as I push the Firewire cable into the UD5, it shuts down.
I hit the reset, no joy. I hit the power switch, no joy. I turned off the main switch, on the power supply, and back on then hit the power switch. The 2 7 segment debug LEDs flashed and a couple of the LEDs, by the ATX power connector come on and the fans kick, but that's all. Not even a half second. I un-plugged, pulled the battery, shorted the CMOS pins, pushed the CMOS switch, plugged in, replaced the battery, tried to boot and no joy. I pulled the video card and tried all the above again, just to take a load off the power supply and no joy. Any body got any ideas?
