*Solved* Freeze after devkit logo - thameslink - 04.11.2017 23:54

Hi anyone seen this problem - flashed bios to DS Devkit bios seemed ok, on power cycle it freezes after the animation on a plain white screen. tested with working SD adaptor & good ide drive.
Any idea?

Hey, yea I've had the exact same problem, good to know what´s causing it. Would you mind telling us what exactly you did to fix the GD-Rom connection?

So it's a temp/fan control, seems a bit drastic to remove it.
