Hello managers,

my upgraded AS8400 (now a GS140 with 8x21264@525MHz and 8 GB) stopped working.
Since the system does number crunching I didn't notice the failure immediately
(those jobs run rather long) and the system lives in a air-conditioned room
(even when we have 35°C outside the room temperature remains at 23°C).

When I came to the system the amber LED of the power modules (there are two
power modules installed) were blinking and the fan had stopped. Switching off
the entire system didn't bring back the system to life. There is no output on
the console. I suppose the fan is dead.

Is there any way to check what does not function? Immediate answers are very
welcome.

Thank you all.
