Hi there,
I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction with a problem I'm having.
My LAH takes a long time to "boot up" when I turn it on. When I power it on all the lights come on but the DMD is blank and it doesn't load the firmware for a while. I can usually cycle the power switch a couple of times and it will come to life but even then I get a stuttering Arnold "I'll be back" as it starts to boot.
If I turn it off and back on after I've been playing it work as it should. I've never had it not come on at all but if it does it every time it hasn't been on for a while.
It has a rotten dog MCU and the rest is original. It is running 1.13 but it did it with the original firmware as well.
I would appreciate any ideas you may have. It is the only issue with the machine and I'd like to get it resolved in case it could create other problems.
Edit: as suggested below (thank you!) the issue was capacitors c1 and c2. Once I replaced those it works beautifully!

Thanks so much, both of you. I'm going to take a look tonight and I'll post any updates. I really do appreciate you taking the time to help!
