Sup Sol.

A lot of people can fix it but what exactly were you doing before it died? Did you try another power supply?

+1 on checking the power supply, especially if it's not doing a single thing on the screen.

Thank you guys, I just tried with one of those multivoltage ac adapters and it turned on again, so now i know that at least that is part of the problem, but i tried about 6 different aes and no one worked i just see either a black screen or a screen with many errors on it, damn :oh_no: what do you think? is it possible that is because of the wrong ac adapter voltage or something like that? :conf:, thanks!!

Make sure the power supply is the correct voltage AND tip polarity. Neo is center negative.

I've never handled an AES so no idea about it's consumption, but you may want to check if your replacement powersupply can output the same amps as the previous... not enough amps could also stop games from booting correctly.

Most multi-voltage adapters won't have enough current to run the AES.
