Hi Gary;
One thing that I seem to be the only one to have noticed and commented on --

The CPU card/ MB socket connection seems to NOT be the most consistent thing in the world. I too have had consistent results with a 'stock' CPU. The upgrade cards however seem to be prone to exhibit DIFFERENT results based on which end of the MB socket the CPU card is shoved towards as it's installed.

When nothing else works, It's worth a try.

(You have tried cleaning the CPU card edge contacts with an eraser, haven't you?)

Hi, Listers.

I am currently deep in one of the worst cases of "black screen of death" I've ever experienced. I'm at the end of my rope.

It's hard to believe a card or my RAM suddenly went bad when it had been running so well before the last Tiger install attempt. Can any of you offer any advice on other ways to reset whatever is holding up the system from proceeding through the first few steps of a reboot. Help!!!!

Thanks,
Gary
