[Gumstix-users] Overheating/non-responding gumstix

[Andreas S. <and...@ya...>]

Dear gumstix users,

I purchased a netstix 400xm-cf computer together with another gumstix on 
September 6, 2007. I did not use it until today. I plugged it in, worked 
for a while and then it stopped responding.

The mailing list mentions a problem with NetCF being powered with the 5V 
supply distributed by gumstix:

h=burned

Does anyone have any experience with this? Did the gumstix fry because of 
this problem or it just need reflashing? Did gumstix resolve this problem 
already or should I start looking for a different platform?

Can I get an RMA number to return the gumstix so that you can tell us if 
it needs reflashing or if it is destroyed?

Best,
Andreas
