Title: Psp wont power up, light blinks for half sec.
Post by: .MadX on July 30, 2009, 12:44:45 PM: I just bought a TA-82 mobo from a ebay user. So I received it today and just got finished putting everything in. I turned it on and the green power light blinked for half a second and nothing happened after that. Like the problem in the following video (note its not my video, just happened to find it):
YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_nz6YQscVI.#)

I am using a ta-82 mobo with ta-86 wifi which are the same and I have a friend that is using that combo and it works fine for him. So don't tell me that it is the wrong mobo. I'll return it to the person I bought it from if there is no other way. So is there a way to fix this?

Thanks.

Description stated "psp motherboard used in perfect conditon FOR THE FAT PSP" and in a message he stated that it works fine. I made a claim on him.

Here a link to the item: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170361824555&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170361824555&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT)

I hit the paypal unverified CREDIT CARD limit (not account) and everytime I try to buy something through paypal, it would say "last auction could not be completed". I've herd that paypal holds the money until a postive feedback or something is given. So I gave him a positive feedback thinking that I would be able to buy more stuff after than. It didn't work lol.

btw the guy give me refunded $32.50 and asked me to ship it back. Which I will after I get the clear payment (shows up as plending for approx. 3-5 days).
