lanman31337 Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 I see some cooked mosfets. If you have skill with a soldering iron, more than likely you could fix it real cheap.

Beanz Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 was it brand new or a refurb? Quote That's why they don't deliver. Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait. You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.
