Wow...I thought I had forgot about them. Never saw one that didn't have problems. IIRC, modems were a bite with them. Everything was the lowest grade component you could find that 'might' still work.

I used to do cable modem installs and would cringe when I would see e-machines. There was a 50% chance the PC would die when installing the Ethernet card!

Shopping for SP20E's - Is there a way to determine from the Serial Number that it is really an 'E' and not a plain SP20? All of my SP20E's start with 'FL145xx" so I assume numbers higher than that are 'E's". Does this make sense ? Who has a really early 'E' machine that they could check ?
OT: Does anyone remember 'E-Machine' computers, $299 desktops what a POS

I normally use seeing if it says Jackson to tell, but I'm betting your right about a serial number difference.
On the OT:
Yes I do remember those E-Machines. They promised never obsolete... i mean how could a E-machine be obsolete they had AOL on that thing!
Pic of never obsolete sticker they had: http://www.halfdone.com/Personal/Job/Pictures/ScrewUps/Never_obsolete_emachine.jpg (Did not do as image as it was to big and annoying for thread)
I worked pt at a pc shop ..a FEW of these E-machine montherboards folk would put in a tower and try to upgrade etc..most of them you could not do that ...but yeah
to my knowledge .....after a while we would not even work on them...just was not doable...we'd just tell the folks they were shot.....just not in the usual way..emachines were
'shot' from design at birth......
shudder.......

Hey anyone. I have an SP30. I have tried every version of firmware and contacted support. i have Loop0, Loop1 and Loop2 that all do not hash. Below are the asic stats section. i have tried enabling and reenabling to no avail. anyone know what is going on. I purchased this from minersource 1 month ago new. Spondoolies no longer supports rma for these. this sucks. i have opened the unit up. all cables look fine, nothing looks or smells burnt. again this sucks.

has it been like this sine day1, or just more recently? my guess is that the ribbon cable inside may be loose or poorly assembled. (I had an Sp20 where one loop was disabled because a single wire in the ribbon cable wasnt properly 'bitten' by the 'teeth' in the connector (its basically an IDE cable). 25min was more then enough to pop open the connector, see the offset wire, reseat it properly, and close everything up again for use

check your power cable inputs at the rear of the unit and make sure they are tightly in place. Check connection at power source for the same.

Not sure how bitcoin core will be maintained AFTER one year Oliveir's donation ends.
I think that industry has to pick up the slack or 10% of miners fees have to be allocated to maintaining the core PLUS fees has to increase approximately three-fold, which is unfortunate, but doable.
Barely even feel it
Back on Topic.
SPONDOOLIE! UPDATES!?!?!?
