How to run diagnostic on DE-10
Posted: Sat Aug 29, 2020 3:27 pm
Hello,
Having some issues with stability.
Occasionally the keyboard locks up, and I had an issue where after loading a core (with no system rom), loading other cores had seriously garbled video. Even the snow effect on the main menu was messed up after a soft reboot. Doing a hard reboot resolved the video corruption.
Wondering if I can do a diagnostic to work out if there is anything wrong with the unit.
I wonder if it might be the power supply. I added an IO board and a USB hub board, and wondering if there is enough power. I was plugging in a USB Wifi dongle, a keyboard dongle, a wired Buffalo pad. The fan of top was set to low speed, and I wasn't doing anything strenious during the crashes (running 8-bit computers at stock Mhz).
I see that the official PSU is rated at 2Amps but there are PSUs that go up to 4A.
Just want to be sure that my board isn't broken.
Thoughts?
