 What serial number?

 Please review http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10314 to see if the evidence
 you have matches the other instances described there.

know there's a
 chance it might prevent booting once power is up.

My serial number is SHC 9370109E
I confirm that this is the same problem than the one stated in the ticket.

Re: [BULK] XO 1.5 blackscreen

 Hi,
 I have a XO 1.5 that no longer boot, and display doesn't turn on at
 all with no booting sound.
 the last time I used it, I shut it by pressing the shutdown button for
 around 5 sec I don't know if it is a safe way to do or if it is
 related to this problem.

A related issue, I have a 1.0 that now intermittently does not boot. It may be 
vibration sensitive. It hangs with I think the mic light on, black screen and 
no sound (of course it is booting OK now and I cannot confirm). Repeated 
attempts and it will boot. When it gets past this point its then OK but it 
might have crashed when bumped. I have a theory that its not getting enough 
volts during the initial power on surge due to a bad connection but that might 
be rubbish. The nand developed heaps of bad blocks about the same time.

Any suggestions gratefully received

Tony

If you can get to OFW, you could run the hardware diagnostics:

I don't know how that might prevent power up, though I know there's a
