Bootloader message

Hi, I couldn't find anywhere else I could ask about the reliable old 3D Touch dinosaur!

So hopefully somebody here can help.

My 3d Touch will not boot up at all.
When I power up, pushing the button does nothing. But if I hold the button down for 6 or 7 seconds it opens up the bootloader screen with the message:
"BFB USB BOOLTLOADER V4"

The only reference I could find in the old BFB blog archive was this: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/s ... clnk&gl=au

But the problem is not the button.

Sometimes, if I leave it powered up, but not push the button to boot and leave it for an hour or so, it will then boot up. :?: :?: :?:

And sometimes I am getting a message:
"TEMPERATURE ERROR
CODE:24
TEMP: 131C
CONTINUE WITH CAUTION"

But no further problems.

Has anybody got any ideas?

I'd recommend going to the BfB archives and getting a copy of 5.4.1, then follow the instructions to re-flash the existing firmware onto the chip. May have been corrupted by a static discharge. http://3dpedia.3dsystems.com/display/BF ... 3dprinting
