Here is what the voltages should look like if you get a hold of a meter.

Don't know if you saw Vert360's post but he is experiencing something very similar to your situation.

Ya it looks like it might be the same, just wanted to know if garrett21allen D8B still passes audio, and everything is still being clocked. Just the only thing that doesnt work is both the MFX and UFX cards?

Do you think a fuse might have been blown?

There three fuses inside the cpu/power supply that are easy enough to check. Let us know what you find.

Hi Vert360

yes everything works when the lights go out but only from the monitor
even the MFX-UFX cards work from what I can tell. I don't know if its the fuse or not
on mine it looks like if it was a bad fuse then I don't think the lights would come on at all
but I could be wrong. let me know if you find anything on your end. and I will do the same
thanks for any help on this.

Well it looks like everything is working for me. I just reseated every ribbon cable, dont know how long it will last. I have had the board on and off for about 5 hours. I think it might have something to with heat, I noticed now that it is colder in houston, (I dont leave the AC on when i leave the Studio, and it gets hot in here) that it has been acting right. The weird thing is, if I raise the fader all the way to 10db via the GUI side, It gets stuck and will not slide down, when i try to move it with the motorize fader. But if i move the fader manually via the motorize fader it doesnt get stuck, the only way i can get it back to moving is using the fader calibration.
