Everything is frozen solid, no mouse , keybrd, hard reset needed. Also,
Paris has been flaky for the past month or so, all kinds of digital pops,
I'm working, all of a sudden, graphic display on all 3 monitors goes to
gibberish, need to hard reset. Re-seated all cards,ram, IDE cables, cleaned
MEC /EDS connectors, re-imaged my OS drive.
Then I noticed during tonight's crash that the LEDs on the front of the 442
were dimming in and out = bad pwr supply. So I decide to swap the pwr supply
and looky looky what I found.
I have a long session booked for this evening so decide to try a fix. Ended
up replacing the connector on the mobo with one I had off an old brd,
spliced a used connector onto the pwr supply side, so far so good.
Just thought I'd share my grief and fix with others.
Rob
