Hi all,
Bought my Sagem HD-D50HG4-T/2 a few years back after a recommendation from here, & up till today ive had fantastic service out of it.
Recently when I power it on there was a red light at start up, I "presumed" (= idiot) it was the light to say the bulb was one the way out.
However, today I try to power it up and I have the top and bottom red lights on.
Looking in the manual it says its to do with the internal temp.
It tells you to switch it off & let it cool down, however its doing it from start up.
Took the back off and had a good nose inside and the heat sink I presume sitting over the processor was 100% full of dust. so have cleaned all of that up, put it all back together & ............... the same.
When I try to power it up I can see that the fan over the processor isnt turning (maybe its burnt out as its had to work so hard). Now is this broken or is it maybe because the processor has fried, or something else and the system is just saying dont bother to fire up, im knackered!!
Anyone with any experience etc on these? any help would be muc appreciated as currently I have no telly, AGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!
