Hey guys,
I got my boards back from Curt and put them back in with your helps!
I have another issue. When I was using my PJ before the boards went out, I had my main input using a DVI card from Moome.
Now I just put the card back in and it won't work. I have two of these cards, and neither work. Not in the b slot, nor the c slot.
The lights don't come on the cards, adn the inputs are not available in the list.
Where to start looking please? Thanks for your patience.

There are a couple of possible snags.
1. The B and C slot boards connect via the 'daughter card'. Try re-seating it but be sure you have pulled the B and C cards first since they physically 'T' into the daughter board.
2. When inserting the new B or C card, I've found it more reliable to completely power down the projector (power switch on front or pull plug and wait for LEDs at rear to go out). That seems to initialize things properly to get the pj to recognize something has been changed.
3. By what method are you trying to switch to the card? If your SIGNAL ENTRY for the DVI inputs were wiped out with the boards being serviced, you will need to make a new signal entry which includes identifying which slot to use. You can also directly tell the pj to switch to the B slot by hitting '4' on the remote or the C slot by hitting '7'.

Thanks Jerry,
I tried re-seating the boards. I also tried adding a new entry, but the B and C inputs are always in yellow after I add them. Also the lights on the boards don't come on.
I haven't tried hitting the 4 or 7 keys yet.
I'll try pulling the plug and restarting the projector, but I'm not hopeful at this point, as I have powered it down with the switch waiting for the LED's to go out.

Assuming it's an issue with the main video input board (the one the B and C boards plug into), I can always send you one of those to try if you want.

Thanks Curt, I may do that. I still trying to figure out what's different. I go a different route as to feeding it too.
