Ok try to keep this short …
I purchased a Antonio Villena mister to jamma ,
Read the guide on how to power mister via
The vga Db15,
I changed to jumper to the 5v as explained in a guide on his web site …
Then the adaptor and the mister stopped had a little smoke and stopped outputting signal.
Now when I power up mister I get solid lights with the official de10 psu
Mister pi all lights flash on power up
Any ideas ?
Is this mister now toast ?
add pic of my Dips

I tried another psu I get all lights on then off still no picture out though ..

I'd unplug it all, connect just your SDRAM to the mister pi, put the micro SD card in, and just connect a HDMI lead and boot it up and hope you have not damaged the mister pi, that would be my first test.

Looking at your video, check your micro SD card is seated correctly, just pop it out and in again, then try booting, if it's still flashing I think it's possibly toast. I'd try contacting Antonio Villena to see what advice he can offer after connecting his jamma adapter.

Yeh done that
I’m using the nano de10 psu
So if it was ok im sure it would have worked .. can’t belive it..
I have read this mister has voltage regulators that can handle like 12v ?

My cab psu was at 5.2v …
Just can’t work out why it did it..
it seems soo fragile

Joboopoot has already said this but to emphasise: It won't boot without an SD so ensure that you definitely have an SD inserted with an image you know is good.
