Spondoolies SP30 Issues

[Cloverleaf762]

One of our SP30s is having some issues I'm hoping someone has experience with. If we power it up we can see it on the network for a few minutes, and it grabs some work. After a minute or so it drops off the network and stops all work. All the fans keep running and we can not see or get into it remotly until it is powered down for 15 seconds or so and plugged back in. Any ideas?

Sounds like it is overheating.  Can you see the temps while it's running?  Can you tell if one of the heat syncs came loose?

I'll have to pull it apart today sometime. I find the web interface annoying also. It dosesn't like to remember changes in the settings. On all of them. Always have to fight with it.

Once they start losing settings like that there really is no permanent fix. The memory chips have just gone bad. If you want it to remember settings you will have to boot it from an SD card.
