"Hardware Error" after power failure
(lemmy.world)
Hello,
Today my washing machine completely broke down. My parents desperately tried to get it working, but it resulted in the circuit breakers tripping and my server (an old Dell Wyse thin client) experiencing a hard power off.
When I tried to turn it back on, I received these errors on the screen.
I ran a memtest, and it completed without any issues. I also created a disk image backup just in case.
Is there any chance of getting this machine running again, or is it only fit for utilization?
Yes, this is exactly the Dell Wyse 5060 with an AMD GX-424CC processor. This thin client is already old, which is why I decided to purchase a newer one with a better processor.
Anyway, thank you for your analysis! I learned a lot of new things. I will try to get it running with your advice and let you know how it goes.
However, this server will probably no longer be needed, since half of its cores are damaged. Previously, its computing power was fully utilized (the load was almost always 4.0), and it handled my tasks very well with four cores. Therefore, I cannot imagine using it with only half of its power available 😁
Are you planning to scrap the CPU? I may be interested in it as I find faulty hardware fun to experiment on.
I will no longer use this device, rather I will throw it away, because I will have no more use for it.
Would you consider sending it to Austria? I'd pay shipping charges (if it's within reason lol). If you are, you can send me an email at:

Thank you, I'll send you an email within a day.
