Experts booting

Postby kinglevel » 11 Mar 2012, 15:30

Hi

Ive used 2 - 3 different experts with newest titan firmware recently. And all of them takes forever to boot...

The screen is stuck at the startup sequence with the "go into bios hotkeys" and the display show the normal messages until it starts counting something (dont remeber what) in seconds.

Sometimes i had to reboot like 10 times to just get them running..

Thoughts?

If it's getting stuck at BIOS then must be hardware. Possibly HDD or memory. But the likelihood of this happening on more than one board seems very slim. Are there any other common factors? ie. power supply?

Ive had the same problem with mine, brand new out of the box it took 3 times to boot, Id leave it running for 5 minutes and it would get stuck on something, and then it's been fine for a few weeks in my studio while plugged in constantly.

Took it to a gig last night and it took 3 times to boot, but otherwise ran normal afterwards.

Anyone experiencing problems like this should get in touch with service as I'm positive it is indicative of faulty hardware.
