    Starview 2 keeps resetting every few minutes ? anyone got any idea's

    Evenin all,

    Only just joined this forum, i was a member on another, but seems to have gone downhill with technical knowledge.

    The problem is, i have a starview 2 'the box' over 12 months old and been working fine.
    However recently the box started to turn itself off and on again every few minutes. Sometimes quicker, sometimes slower!

    I have reflashed with latest software, that didnt help, tried putting the old software back on, nothing changed there either??

    I have put a couple of pictures up so you can see the board itself, as far i can see the caps all look ok.

    Can you get a replacement power board from anywhere ?

    Many thanks for the help guys


    The two caps you can see on this pic (C21 & U2) were stuck together, i moved them and they 'snapped' away from each other, cant see any other damage though.









    Let me know if you need anything else

      big black PSU capacitor in the bottom of last picture is blown - you can see the electrolyte has leaked over the circuit board. remove and replace with a soldering iron.
