Hi guys!
I also got the red light of death on my Duo the other day.
Searched the forums and came up with the threads that suggested that it could be fixed by changing the capacitor C807.
Said and done, took my box to work and changed te capacitor to a new one. I measured the old one and it sure was broken, not showing any farads anymore just resistance.
Happily I put the box together so much that I could start it, but nothing happened!
Still the same irritating red light of death. I can still hear the HDD spin up so the box is powered up.
I now closely looked at the other sorrounding components and found that one of ICīs next to C807 looks funky Maybe it had an alien inside of it that had to break loose
My experiance tells me itīs broken to but I canīt seem to find what component it is and what to replace it with.
Took a couple of pics to show you what it looks like, including the text on the IC, maybe you can aid me in the right direction where to get a new one and what it is?
Perhaps a voltage regulator?
Thank you in advance.
