Shuttle question

I have a bit of an odd question. I have a shuttle SN45-G and I am having some trouble with the power LED light. Everything seems to be plugged in correctly, but the Blue power LED light hasn't come on since about the second month I had the box. The Hard drive LED which I would assume plugs into a similiar place, works just fine. Anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this issue?

Another question, has anyone here ever had issues with using BH5 chips (I have some Kingston HyperX dimms that run at 2 2 5 2). I can get the system to post by putting some more generic memory in the box but once the computer trys to boot with this memory in, it bugs out and reboots. I have tried running the memory more relaxed and at lower speeds yet it doesnt seem to want to work in the shuttle. I tried some Corsair BH5 dimms that run at the same timings also. So far the only memory I can get to work in it are some cheap samsung pc 2100 dims. All the fast (and more expensive memory) worked just fine in my P4 system. Any ideas? *boggles*

Thanks alot fellas

LED"s like any other thing created by man won't last forever. My guess is the LED is simply on its last leg, due to the fact that when you plug in the HDD LED, it works fine.

Shuttles have historically been VERY picky about the type and brand of RAM you install in them. If the sticks you install won't work no matter what timings or voltage settings you set them too, then they won't work period, shuttles are that unforgiving.

If I recall correctly, the SN45's has been one of the worst and it typically does not do well with the BH5 chipset memories. You can try flashing the BIOS to the newest version. I would also suggest you relay your question to the guys at SFFTech
