Hey guys,
I'm new here but have a pretty big problem. I work at my High School's TV studio and we are running several expensive editor computers, four HP's and one main, broadcasting computer that is a Dell workstation. Usually, we have one or two external hard drives hooked up to it that are often removed (legitimately) from the computer to be used on others. Today, one of the other kids who works there was just about to attach one via firewire, and the entire system shut down, would not turn back on, and the power light lit up yellow. We called Dell and of course they gave us the diagnosis, "power failure, hardware failure..." My question is, have any of you had this problem? Did we blow a fuse? Static electricity (everything is on a carpeted floor)? Right now we have one dead main editor and a dead external hard drive
Any help is greatly appreciated!
