>>I was typing away happily in Word (on the battery FWIW), when all of a sudden the machine started inserting a string of extra "n's" between the letters. What is going on with this machine??????? A virus maybe? A hardware problem?<<
Probably the last. My "new" 5300 started the extra letter bit (lower case L), but only when I was in the File Sharing CP, or setting up the modem user name and password. And then it wouldn't boot. Normal chime, then a 'click,' and that was it. Reseated the RAM card and the connection to the HD. Suspect the RAM card, but why not do both if the thing is anesthetized on the operating table?
