hi fellows,

tonight i ran into a major problem: one of my two hp workstations is
having problems with the power on switch:

the button must be pushed and tricked more than 5 times to turn the
machine on (led's blink only for a second when you push the button
once).  i did not mind and just did not turn the machine off :-)

but now, i have the problem that the machine runs for 5-6 minutes and
then suddenly powers off itself.

i really suppose it to be a problem with the A1094-66541 PCBA Switch
that is the little power switch assembly behind the drive cage that is
connected to the leds with the small ribbon cable and connected to the chas=
sis backplane with a long cable.

does someone of you (preferably in germany, or the best would be
munich) know somebody, who i may ask to get me such a part?


i am quite sure, that this PCB is generating the problems with powering
on the machine and recently that it powers itself off.
some months ago i took the power switch PCB from my second machine and
put it into this one and the PCB worked, but i need it for the other
machine of course, which happens to be the web/mail server from which i
am currently writing and receiving my mails.

thank you in advance for any help to get this machine up and running
again...

alex
