From: "Glenn Meadows" 

Yea, I've skipped the Motherboard replacement right now, it's a REAL bear
to change in this box, as it's a rack mount thing, with lots of add ons,
and stuff to take out.  Essentially have to get down to a bare chassis to
get the MB out.

I'm installing on the new 160gig drive as I type this.  I'll copy over the
audio from the second partition after the OS is installed, putting the
drive on the other controller temporarily.  Should be back up and running
by noon, I hope .
