Hi A *lot* of errors on the 5370’s (A or B) can be traced to a couple of fairly simple issues:
1) Connectors and sockets. Simple un-plug and plug back in may solve the problem (at least for a while). 2) The power supply. The parts are pretty common, so it’s a fairly easy fix. 3) Alignment. This takes a while, but these beasts do drift. No I’m not suggesting that you buy every single 5370 based on it being an “easy fix”. I would indeed check 1 and 2 above on any 5370 that comes in. There are things like ROM’s with known defects that die and are a bit more problematic to replace ( = get the replacement CPU board).
