I had recently the same problem with one of mine Ensembles (see Ensemble starting but not booting ) After some discussion between my dealer and his Meridian contact he could organize a new replacement main board and he gave it to me for free (but he was charged) At the end, I hadn't to replace the main board. Before replacement I checked the Battery and this resolved the problem. Ensemble is running with old main board.

Here you are ... do you need more detailed pictures from specific areas or positions? Unfortunately I couldn't find any information about manufacturer or model. Can you? ![[Linked Image]](https://www.meridianunplugged.com/ubbthreads/gallery/16/medium/1745.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.meridianunplugged.com/ubbthreads/gallery/16/medium/1746.jpg)

Looks like a stripped / custom version of an Albatron KI690-AM2
To interact with the board, it looks like an adaptor cable would be needed to hook into the video connector that has been put near where the DVI/VGA stacked connectors would have gone.
The existing picture on Duncan's site shows a board with the video connectors still in place - there may be several revisions floating around.
Matt.

I replaced the battery in my motherboard and now everything is working again.
Thanks to everyone for the advice.
Pity that I already bought an MD600 as a replacement!
Anyone want to buy an Ensemble from Australia?

I had 2 mainboards with faulty power supplies.
Changed the FET transistors Q31 and Q32 (on the back) but there was still a short circuit. The driver U6 on top of the board was also faulty.
Also TC10 capacitor (next to the ATX PSU connector) was blown. Replace it with a low ESR type.
