hi

is there an internal fuse i can change or is it now borked??

thanks

It's a wellknown fact among us old time hackers, that computers run on smoke and not on electricity which the common people think. The proof : If you have let out the magical smoke from the computer, no matter how much electricity you pour into the computer, it won't run anymore.

So I am sorry to say, you are the proud owner of a clamshell shaped doorstop now.

 

Is the smell coming from the brick or the computer? Have you tried running it without the battery? It is possible for the computer to be fixed but unless it is the battery or the brick then it may well be cheaper to buy a new AA1.

 

that would be a no lol

very kindly the place i bought it from via amazon said no problem send it back and they sent out another

most places i asked said once that happened its toast

big up to bentham in somerset



thanks for replies
