unit, a 28' trailer we run all over hell in our maket area. They sit
in the cold,
they sit in the heat, they run in all temps, etc. So we're the poster children
for how to beat one within inches of it's life? That's why there's so many, I
didn't even count my personal one at the house...
Yes, the one unit SHOULD pop a RRoD. Sucker didn't want to, keeps popping
a CPU/GPU failure with a single red light. I looked online for some suggestions
and found the blanket trick, we said wtf and did it - worked like a charm. Had
to do it one more time and since then, no failures. We were hoping for a RRoD
so we could ship the sucker back, it decided it was going to work with the
meltdown trick - no explanation, baffles us.
