Sorry to hear that David. As a last resort pull everything off the board
including all RAM modules, and install your original 604 processor card. If
you don't get a question mark then, it's likely major. Do try more than one
video card though. It would be nice if it was the video card, wouldn't it?

S900's & J700's often go for a song on eBay. You won't have to worry about
exorbitantly high prices that's for sure. I'm sure I saw J700's going for a
hundred bucks. The J700 motherboard, while having less PCI slots, is
essentially a direct replacement for an S900 mb.

It's a bummer when ol' faithful dies. But a little surgery will revive her.
