vantec nexus nxp-101
got one of these and it is totally bust, cant return because i lost some
stuff from the box and threw away the original packaging in over confidence it would work first time when i plug a usb cable into the front.. i get sparks, literally i get a small light spark when i plug a external device into the ports here, is this dangerous? the usb ports dont seem to work either either does the fan controller and the alarm goes off non stop not having a good experience with vantec, got a fan controller and it doesnt seem to work with the stealth fans, and the LED's have died, i again threw out original packaging and supplier wont allow return, cant RMA to vantec as they do not work outside of USA/canada bummer huh? about the usb thing though, is it dangerous? should i take the panel out and inspect? -- -- MSI KT6V AMD Athlon XP2600+ |

... got one of these and it is totally bust, cant return because i lost some stuff from the box and threw away the original packaging in over confidence it would work first time None of which is required if you wanted to get an RMA to get it returned for them to check if it is broken. when i plug a usb cable into the front.. i get sparks, literally i get a small light spark when i plug a external device into the ports here, is this dangerous? They don't provide manuals online so I cannot tell if they use a polarized plug or even if your motherboard provided a polarized plug. Most mobos just have a header strip of 4 pins and it is up to YOU to know what wire to connect to which pin. Sounds like you have ground and/or voltages mixed up (i.e., you wired it up wrong). It is possible there is a short somewhere within the product so if a wiring check doesn't show up the problem then RMA the product (http://www.vantecusa.com/rmacenter.html). -- __________________________________________________ _______________ ******** Post replies to newsgroup - Share with others ******** Email: lh_811newsATyahooDOTcom and append "=NEWS=" to Subject. __________________________________________________ _______________ |
