1. Re: Intel compute stick STK1AW32SC blue led on but no display
Al Hill Mar 25, 2018 10:11 AM (in response to jacksw)So, you decided to update the bios while months of updates were downloading and installing? I know it is probably not written down anywhere, but I would never attempt to do both of those tasks simultaneously.
I have a 1st gen stick as well, from around Feb 2015 (that is more than 3 years ago). It has literally traveled more than 100K miles, while at the mercy of the baggage handlers of that friendly skies airline, using AC from 110 to 220 and both 60 and 50 hrz on that little power supply, and the thing works as good today as the day I received it.
Yeah, when the warranty is up, the warranty is up. But, it would be awfully difficult for me to fault that giant corp for what seems like a user induced error.
Just my opinion, and I am not an employee of that giant corp.

jacksw Mar 25, 2018 11:13 AM (in response to Al Hill)I value your opinion and yes, I could have the stick to work forever if I never touch any updates like a saying 'do not fix something that is not broken' but hey, intel is putting a computer OS into this stick so I should be able to enjoy any update. But most occasions it seems like intel sticks don't get along pretty well with Microsoft Windows OS. The fact that this product does not have any fail safe design to prevent the stick being bricked shows how much quality in their innovation.

Al Hill Mar 25, 2018 11:26 AM (in response to jacksw)Ok, but the bios update was not forced on you. That was 100% voluntary.
As I said, my stick gets along fine, with bios updates and with Windows. I find it a very nice and useful device.
We will have to agree to disagree.

jacksw Mar 25, 2018 11:40 AM (in response to Al Hill)Right. I guess I have spent enough for 2 sticks as my hobbyist devices. Now I pray hard my NUC7 will not fail me, I better not bother with Intel BIOS updates.

jacksw Mar 27, 2018 10:25 AM (in response to Intel Corporation)Hi Anthony,
Thanks for replying. I'm pretty sure my stick went dead with blue led on but no display output. Here are the SA# and serial number:
SA#: H93326 102
S/N: GESC63900FBE
Let me know whether it can be RMA'ed. Otherwise, thanks for your time.
