Dimension 2400 Motherboard replacement or upgrade?
I have a Dim2400 desktop that the motherboard has crashed. I have been trying to order this part throught Dell Parts and Services since last August. Twice the order was taken for a Service Kit, Planar, DIM2400, FoxElectronics (HY001) and twice within a couple days I am informed that the orders were cancelled. Seems this board is no longer available in their supply system. I bought my PC from Dell just 3 years ago and within a month of my service warrenty expiring the motherboard crashs along with the power supply, for no reason. What recourse do I have? Can this system use a different board, does it have to be a HY001? Does anyone know of any other places I can turn to to find a replacement. I am at a loss. Dell's customer service and parts service have been of little help. Thanks for any help. Tom

Sorry, cannot say, there's not enough information.
You need to post a full description of the problem, have you checked the reading of the diagnostic lights on the back panel and the colour of the power button LED.
Is the power button LED, solid green, blinking green, solid amber, blinking amber?
Check the sequence of the Diagnostic Lights

on the back panel.
