In order to end the thread with some good (I hope) news.
After some correspondence with Blackmagic we have returned the unit to reseller, which unfortunetaly was not able to determine the problem due to lack of the spare PSU.
So it was shipped to regional service company, where the faulty PSU was finally confirmed as being the reason of the problem.
It is supposed to be back soon, maybe even today.
Therefore I’d like to thank Blackmagic representatives for support, both here on forum, and in mails.
For the future, I think buying an extra PSU might be a good idea.

Hi,
I’ve finally got a chance to check the PSU voltage – it is 10.94V
Could this be the problem, however it doesn’t seem to be very far off 12V…
regards

I’ll have it checked after weekend by someone more qualified than me. What is the correct current I should expect?

Looks like a common issue recently? When i tried to search the forum for information on dead MBP I found posts from 2007, reffering to MBP which arrived dead.
Now it seems that dead Multibridges are popping all around. (well, that is a bit exaggerated statement, but 2 more in just couple of days? That’s weird.
Those symptoms you mentioned above are identical with our case. Mac Pro just would not boot last Thursday for no apparent reason.
We were using previous drivers (6.7 if I remember correctly) on Mac Pro quad core 2.66 2007 edition, running Leopard with all updates, FCS2 with all updates and Production Studio CS4.
Updating drivers didn’t help, however as I mentioned in my post – the red Led does not lit up also. We can only hear the fan starting when the power supply is plugged in. Have you tried connecting with USB and Blackmagic Utility?
My country BM dealer hasn’t responded to my mail yet.
I’m still looking forward for some information, preferably from Blackmagic people themselfs, as I’ve seen them present on this forum…
