Hello,

I would recommend that you contact Sun and use your warranty.

These forums are only user-to-user. The Ultra 40 M2 has just been added to the Sun System Handbook on March 22, 2007.

Incidently the link to the page for the Ultra 40 M2 is missing on the [url=http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/Systems/]Systems[/url] page. You have to use the [url=http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/Systems/Ultra40_M2/Ultra40_M2.html][b ]link[/url] from the [url=http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/]main page[/url] instead.

The fix was a new motherboard. Once this was identified as the solution, Sun had someone at my house and the problem fixedin about 36 hours. I was impressed.
