Hello Jim - 

JH> What's with these Fidonet datestamps? Can it be that you
JH> either stayed up really late, or got up really early at
JH> something like 4AM to post - - 

Aren't you the curious little troll. 

MM>> Allow me to start from the beginning with what I think I
MM>> know: You have a Dell Celeron basically 'found on your
MM>> doorstep', 

CA>> AFAIK it's an HP machine at 433mhz, not 'Dell'. ;-) 

JH> Whoopee! That's a good 'un, Charles, and I guess you can
JH> carve another notch on your trusty six-shooter - - Wayne's
JH> balky machine is an HP Pavilion 4483, or something like
JH> that. 

Sure three shots at me and one back makes me a 'gunslinger'.
Troll on little man. 

JH> PS for Dell are another matter, and I think Dell somehow
JH> changed around the wiring on their ATX power connectors for
JH> at least some of their machines.. 

You 'think' they did this for 'some'? Being awfully specific
here aren't you afraid of being wrong? 

CA>> --8<--cut 

JH> Maybe not such a good "cut", Charles, - - see below 

Your proofreading of my messages would be flattering if it
wasn't just more trolling. 

MM>> You may well have MORE than one problem, and from all of
MM>> what you have posted, you could have bad HD, RAM, Cache,
MM>> and PS, as well as thermal problems all at the same time.
MM>> :-(( 

JH> What Matt actually wrote is per the below - - 

Everyone can read the original message. We don't need you to
direct our attention. You're hardly the 'mentor' here. Troll. 

--8<--cut 

CA>> While what you say is within the realm of reality it seems
CA>> a bit unkind to cause Wayne this much stress all at once.
CA>> Any of us could have multiple problems 'all at once' on
CA>> any given day. 

JH> Oh, yes, and some of us have multiple problems _everyday_.
JH> But, as to Matt's message somehow being "unkind", I
JH> disagree with you, Charles. (I know, I know, what else is
JH> new?) 

If you didn't have me to disagree with you would have to
actually think and come up with an original idea. I save you
the strain. Troll. 

--8<--cut 

JH> I know you've been suggesting PS all along, and that may
JH> very well end up being Wayne's central (or only) problem
JH> with this system, but I think Wayne would be well advised
JH> if he were to go through Matt's suggested testing steps. 

I did not say the 'testing steps' were wrong. You're trying to
troll a bit here with _your_ additions that I did not say. 

Get a life, get a clue, get lost.
