Well, David, after all the tests you performed and the verifications you did, it really looks like the daughtercard is toasted, or the processor itself. Although, when the daughtercard is not seated properly, what you usually get is no chime, nothing, except the caps lock key and the num key that will lit if you press them. So, it might be something else. Is the chime the usual chime you get when you reboot? Maybe one of the memory DIMM is damaged or unseated? -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] feeping creature n.: [from feeping creaturism] An unnecessary feature; a bit of chrome that, in the speaker's judgment, is the camel's nose for a whole horde of new features. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
