Title: Need Help Origin Might be Dead
Post by: Buckner on December 03, 2022, 05:49:49 am
Help, my Origin desktop, which has worked great, is now showing the following problem:
On power up I get no LEDs,
A bright, solid white-ish screen with slowly developing, multi-color vertical lines that eventually fade away back to mostly white after a few minutes.
No sound,
No USB recognition by the computer.

I looked through the technical documents and tested all the points for voltage in the Technote 06 Power Supply .pdf. All the caps/points tested fine except the following:
C2181 showed a little over 1v instead of between 3.23v to 3.35v
C2178 showed about .3v instead of between 1.15v to 1.25v
C2159 barely registered anything when it should be between 2.45v to 2.55v

So now what can I do? Try to replace those surface mount capacitors? I don't think I have the inverter problem or any of the USB firmware issues. And I know it has been years since there has been any real support from Arturia. I just fucking love my Origin and refuse to let it die. Any help/advice??

New power supply?  Symptoms sound similar to situation where power supply is bad
