There is a small signal transistor near the cmos. In older boards it's a to92. In new boards it's an sot23. It's this device and a couple of components around which konk out. Replacing these will solve your problem. If not change mobo. -- Rgds JTD -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
