balood;
Did you get this fixed? It’s been a while and I got this resolved by sending it in on warrenty. But I did gather a lot of info on this before I sent it in. Did the switch break from removing the MOBO from the case? ~~PatWait, this broken switch issue appeared in a couple of past posts. It’s happened to me and was resolved. Did you get this fixed?? ~~Pat
Hi cybrgrl – Yup, that switch seems pretty flimsy.
In a previous post I found someone putting in
a solid state drive broke off the little tounge
on the case switch that activates the on/off
gizmo on the motherboard. They fixed his under
warrenty. So I (just like him) sent the unit
(N130) back to somewhere in Texas for warrenty.
In 3 days it was on its way back to me.
At the moment it’s in transit. Should get it
tommorrow. They said they replaced the whole
motherboard and tested it. So Just get an RMA and
there should be no problem. P.S. If you opened the
case, don’t mention it ’cause I believe that voids
the warrenty. Sending it back seemed like the best
thing to do to me but I got back a few replies how
to fix it and I’m sure that could’ve been done.
But Samsung was good to me and I’m happy with them.
If you have anymore questions, let me know. Email
if you want, it might be quicker:
patk01@sbcglobal.net – Good luck… ~~PatThanx for the reply. In my case the ‘switch arm tonge’ has broken off. So, I guess that leaves me with sending the unit to Samsung or my by-passing or jury rigging (tricky soldering) the switch somehow. My guess is returning this to Samsung is an expesive proposition. Bummer, ’cause the unit is only around 60 days old… : -( Thanx anyways guys ~Pat
Thank you for the quick come back. As soon as I can borrow a camara, I’ll post the pics. In the meantime, I see from a previous post that the motherboard has tiny box with a piece of plastic that fits into the case switch. The previous poster said the plastic broke as the case came off and he returned it under warrenty. But the warrenty apparently excludes case removal?? I was hoping someone might have a work around? ‘K, off to find a camara. Thanx again ~Pat
