Hobbit Hobbled

Hello Everyone.

I have had a Hobbit Black Arrow Edition for a few years now. It did not boot up today. See pic.

It's not been getting much use lately as I am away from home a lot.

I'm wondering if there is a battery somewhere that needs replacing. I've had this happen on a PC where the button battery on the motherboard dies.

The blurb on the pic says version 1.21. I was running 1.90. So, has it lost it's memory? I haven't tried connecting a keyboard and pressing F1 or F2 yet.

Yes, I know we are now up to version 3.0. but I have not been confident enough to risk an update !! Cheers, Graham.

I changed the CR2032 battery in my Dialed In while it was on to make sure it didn’t lose the settings, the original battery was a bit low and guess yours would need changing by now.
The battery is in the motherboard, mine was in the backbox.

Thanks for that. I'll get me spanners out soon.
