Way'all....Does it go dark or all zeros or --.  Either
a component is thermal (freeze spray) or make certain
it is not the molex pins.  That's where I've had
trouble - some pressure on the two rows perhaps to see
if it might come back.  Also check the switch on the
back.  There are some places to start, hopefully.
