Now *that* sounds like a plan! After updating my BIOS, and installing new RAM,
I still have problems. I've also got the feeling that my video card may be going bonkers on me. When I switch to a console (Ctrl-Alt-F1), I'm now getting white spots on a portion of my screen. I also get ghosts when dragging icons around the desktop.
Turn off box, remove cover, unplug video card, run pencil eraser across card
