Sudden DE10 Nano Death? Mystery Shutdown, Staydown
Posted: Thu Jan 06, 2022 2:55 am
I was playing Mr. Do! a couple of days ago and the screen went black. It did not come back up after power cycle, perhaps a corrupt SD I thought? Now I don't know what's up. Should not have been too hot as the analog board on top has a fan. Power supply reads a steady 5.05V. To make diagnosing simpler I removed everything and I am trying with the bare DE10 board - should display a menu at least. I have 3 SanDisk SD cards, 32, 64 and 128GB - I have used Balena Etcher to put the Mister Fusion 2.3 image on each and gone through the startup process. Every time the screen is blue then goes black with the startup information page and tells me it should take less than two minutes. After that the screen goes black, then the green activity light begins flashing again - then nothing - no screen output at all, not on HDMI and not on VGA (if I put the analog IO board back on). I have left it on for maybe 15 minutes but no output.
Then I tried the Intel Linux image "de10-nano-image-Angstrom-v2016.12" - boots to Linux.
What would you try next? Is there some log written by the Mr. Fusion process that I could look at?
