This kind of question comes up all the time. I don't understand why. You've got the hardware. Things change. You can test it right now, and tell us if things have changed. If they are still broken, you can add value to the old thread. If they now work, you can add value to the thread. Asking such a question is, to use perhaps a bit strong of a term, poisonous.
