Quite a regular

First time this has ever happened. Was working on the X5000 and for no reason at all it just shut down. I turned it back on and here we are as normal.

Really odd.

I do not think it was anything to do with anything overheating since it is cool here and the temperature dock is showing <60deg always.

Happened to me twice over the past four years. Exactly the same spontaneous switch-off.

Was not capturing serial output either so not sure if I could have caught something. I will pretend that nothing happened!

Had NAS mounted, Odyssey open, was working on linux machine through VNC. Funny enough it seemed like it happened at 1700 BST on the dot... but that is just speculation and probably coincidence.

Not too shy to talk

It has become semi-regular for me. I was experiencing it every few minutes. Re-plugged the power cable to the motherboard and it largely solved the problem but after a day or so powered up, it will st switch itself off.

Sounds weird, I'd try getting a new PSU.

strange this must be an issue with X5000's as I've never had this happen with my X1000 since new & that's over a decade ago now..or maybe I'm just a lucky guy and there are also X1000 users that this is happening to?

I thought about that, but am loathe to take such an expensive option, especially as i invested in such a good one when i built it.

One possibility is that there is somewhere (cable/component/connector) an intermittent short circuit, activated e.g. by heat or a certain position of a cable. That would cause the PSU to cut-off power.

I had that problem for a while a many years ago.
It went away when I installed a new uboot.
So maybe there was a bad contact between the sd-card and the motherboard or maybe i needed to unplug and replug something else that had poor contact while installing the new card.
5 years later it is still running good 😎
