No. There is still power on the mainboard led and the leds of the network

Both. Same result.
Yes and yes.
No, it is not. I cannot imagine that it does. I can leave the PC off for 2

No, I don't see. Why?
I guess these do not suffer from 'overweight problems' of fans. ;)

Thats interesting. I always thought that AMDs' chips were better performers
at the same speed rangefrom what I've read. (but I'm no expert).
Really dependant upon what your doing, AMD's ARE better performance/mhz
usually.. but..

No, it's because P4's don't overheat.. period. They throttle their clock
speed, to reduce heat. if they detect overheating, so where thermal

Okay... I tried every trick in the book (and outside of it). And it is

I just about took the entire machine apart again, put it back together
with basically just the video card and the mainboard. No CDRom, no
soundcard, no nothing. Standing upright it collapses within 15 minutes.
