ReadyNAS NV+ won't boot
Hello,
I started having a problem with my readynas nv+ last week: I noticed the screen was blank (it had green backlighting and a black bar across the bottom, but no letters) and the fan was blasting. A few minutes later, it went off and would not go back on. I figured power supply, and called tech support and they sent a new one. I installed it, and as soon as I plug it in (without even hitting power button), the screen lights up the same way again and the fan starts blasting, but nothing else happens. I unplugged it immediately, thinking I didn't want to ruin another power supply. Does this mean my unit is dead? It's over 5 yrs old and I'm fine retiring it if I can get the data off of it. Any ideas?

Try holding the power button in for 30 seconds before connecting the power again. It sound like something in the CMOS may have gotten stuck "on".

Thanks - I gave that a try, but it still blasted the fan and lit up as soon as I plugged it in.
