I found two screws in my Junque Boxe, a tad too long, but use of a couple of washers took care of that. Never throw anything away ... my motto to live by. Issue resolved. rs

I have an FZ77 MB and I want to install an mSATA Drive on it. There drive requires two screws to hold down the drive and they were not on the MB and Samsung did not supply them with the Drive. Does anyone know the screw size ? I would hate to take the computer down to the hardware store to...

Excellent, now to find one. Thank you, Richard S

The power supply in it now is only 250 watts. I would like to get a bigger supply. but there are so many different models that I cannot figure out which one to get. How does one make sure the newer, beefier supply will fit (short of buying it and seeing if it fits). Is there a magic decoder...

It's pretty much academic now. Shuttle got back to me on a replacement MB, a whopping $60. Not worth the pain to look elsewhere. BTW, the two MB's I saw on e-Pay, one in Ireland, the other in Australia, were significantly more money. Thanks for the replies, Richard Solomon

Wow, 25 postings ... that's not going to help me much in the near term. I could make like Marshawn Lynch, but the Moderator(s) might take a dim view of that. Guess I'll have to look elsewhere if I want to find a FH61 MB anytime in the near future. Ciao Richard S

I thought I would visit the Sale/Trade section of this forum, but I get a message that I don't have permission ??? How does one get permission ?? Thanks, Richard S

If there was a source of Service Info (schematics, voltage points, etc), I could run some tests on it. I am thinking it's one of those high grade electrolytics that has bit the dust. But, without any info, I would be just shooting in the dark. So, it's off to find a replacement MB, or another...

Considering the Local Tech Shops charge $50 to do less than I just did, that route seems not to be the most financially sound route. I checked e-Bay and did a Google search for another FH61 MB. Came up empty. Looks like I got a lot of good parts unless I find another MB somewhere. Thanks...

I pulled both RAM Sticks, dis-connected the three drives and pulled a Serial Port card I had installed. Now, it just cycles on and off ... on for about 1/2 second, then off for a second or two, then the cycle repeats. Thanks for the reply, Richard S

I have a Shuttle SH61, i5 Processor, with an FH61, Ver. 1.0 MB. When I hit the power switch, the blue power indicator comes on briefly (< 1/2 second) and then goes off. I checked the power supply using one of those universal power supply testers you find on that auction site, all voltages...
