On election night at about 7PM local time and right in the middle of posting a response to something on the list, my PC's motherboard decided to belly up and die. My screen froze in mid-post and everything was locked.
So I did what one does in these situations and rebooted. Dead Dead Dead My PC was DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!! All it would do was give me this two tone alarm code that I could not find referenced anywhere. My monitor told me it was on and that I should check my PC. The alarm sounded like a British police siren from the sixties. I waited for Dr. Who to show up, but to no avail. Of course I was busy watching election results of our national IQ test. <G> (That's a joke, I haven't lost my sense of humor. That, apparently is not a part of my motherboards CMOS<G>) The next night I got stuck at work taking care of a hospital emergency. The night after that I collapsed from exhaustion. Last night I had to get my son for our visitation. So I didn't get to examine my PC in detail until today. It took two hours to diagnose (basically guesswork) and repair. So now I have a new motherboard and the same old President. Life is weird like that. xponent Glad To Be Back Maru rob _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
