Too bad.  I was about to suggest you might be able to "borrow" an ATX
type PS from her for a few days to help figger out what went bad in the
Celeron machine.

But if she actually _is_ helping the disabled, perhaps she can't be
_all_ bad?  Maybe she was just having a "bad hair day."

Meanwhile, if you feel up to rooting around inside those boxen again,
instead of trying the suspect Quantum drive from the Celeron over to the
Pentium, you could bring the DOS/Win3.x drive from the Pentium over to
the Celeron?  If machine would run OK with that drive, that would point
to the Celeron's HDD, not the Power supply.  If good HDD doesn't run
OK in there, PS is the likely culprit.

When you've narrowed it down a bit more, if it still seems that PS is
the prob, I have some info I can type out about those proprietary
little ATX PS's.

Good luck. - - -  JimH.
