I'd call that a fairly massive hint, and other than hard drive failure, I'd say we're coming to the end of the list of possibilties. Update the motherboard BIOS, and if it still won't play, swap it out for a spare motherboard and see if that fixes it. Of course, I'm saying this as someone aged 37 with a shed full of obsolete PC spares I can delve through; the only worry being whether the mice have eaten/pooed-on anything important (clue: never keep chicken food and electronics in the same shed). If you're 15 and have just bought your first... everything... then you're probably going to have to make friends with someone who can lend you a spare. By "spare" I mean "they won't mind if you break it". Do NOT disassemble your best mate's very expensive, and only, PC and then discover that your PSU subtly fries every motherboard it comes into contact with. I recommend joining your local Linux User Group and finding someone with their own shed full of spares nearby! http://lug.org.uk -- Andrew Oakley -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.org/UKTeam/
