I have a Probox that is a few years old. I noticed that it had stop responding to the computer it is plugged into. I attempted to power it off using the power button, but got no response. I unplugged the power supply and of course the lights went out. After plugging the power supply back in after a couple of minutes, I get one blue flash, but then nothing - it will not power on. I have an extra external power supply (for a second ProBox) and swampy it the connected to the faulty ProBox, but the behavior was the same.
Is there a part I can replace?

Re: Probox will not power on
Yes - I now have 4 power adapters. They all work on one unit. None power the faulty unit.
