Power On, Screen Flash, Then Off
« on: November 01, 2005, 05:05:50 pm »
Hello, I've ran into a strange problem on my Zaurus SL-C3100...
After putting it in host mode over usb, I switched it off, then tried to switch it on again with just a flashing screen result... I've tried putting it on A/C, put off the Planex CF card and SD memory card, get off the battery then plugged it again, with always this same effect.
Did anyone have this problem and know about any solution ? Thanks in advance.

Hi Transcendz,
   Hopefully not a dumb suggestion, but double-check the 'lock' on the battery compartment.  I have had a similar problem after using the reset, and the battery lock was not quite 100% in the lock position.

Cheers,

Well, I resolved it by charging completely the battery. Apparently, the computer sucked all the power from it through the USB cable... Strange behaviour !
