When I sat down at my desk yesterday morning the monitor was dark and the power light was off. Because this system stays on 24/7/365 (and the monitor blanks after 10 minutes of inactivity), I thought there was a power failure but the system was up and running. > * Were there any symptoms prior to it dieing?

But, with three large projects (and all clients wanting my full attention to their needs), the situation may change in a week. But, if it can be fixed that would be great.
