Great news Dick. I was guessing your problems were due to some reassembly
error. I'm not as hopeful for my MB, as I disassembly/reassembly hadn't
been in the equation for a good 4-5 weeks when it suddenly failed to boot
one morning (after working fine all the night before too I'll add)

So you mean that you found >3< fuses, right? Man... I know I'm really bad
at finding things in general... I looked up components "J" and "K", but a
like a dope didn't think of looking down the list for the term 'Fuse"

Thanks for spotting those Dick. I guess all my fuses are okay. Fuse "A"
and "B" measure .5 ohm, and "C" measures 1 ohm... though my cheap little
multimeter zeros out at .5 ohms.
I'll reassemble things later today at some point for a few tests. A least
things look a bit more hopeful. But since the system failed without any
input from me (that I can think of), I have to remain a bit skeptical.

Watch the system to see if starts shutting itself down at 266 spontaneously
Dick. If your in a mild climate, which I think you are if I recall
correctly, you might not have the problems with overheating I did in the
Florida heat where I had attempted 266 myself. I used a conductive pen,
not being great at soldering these tiny components. And I didn't feel
confident enought to try the 233 modification. I think we just heard from
someone who had to clock their 100 down to 233 from 266 in order to avoid
overheating.
