A power brownout lasting nearly two days, where all I could run was a couple of lightbulbs at a time, took the life of my C500 I found out yesterday.
I tried repeatedly to get it to fire doing all the usual things and found when I wiggled wires in the power supply it would come to life, but no chime, no life on the screen even with the original CPU, removing / replacing memory, drives, cables, so on. It is resting against the fence out in the wilderness. A victim of stormy, windy weather. It's innards will serve some other machine or another so it's short life will not have been in vain.
