Good morning!

Well, my computer is still dead. The old power supply had something loose rattling in it, so my sister replaced it last night to see if that was the problem.

Unfortunately, we have narrowed it down to either the CPU or the (~gasp!~) motherboard. *sigh*

She took the box home with her and is constructing a frankenstein machine out of it and another machine she has at home, so I hope to be back online by the end of the week.

If not, I will have to wait until I can order a stripped-down Dell box and have my sister cannabalize my old machine to get all of the peripherals, memory, etc out of it to put in the new machine.

As always, things are never easy. ~shrugs~

Oh, dear, no fun. Sorry it wasn't the easy choice. Hope she can figure out what's really wrong with it.

Stuff like this is why I don't mind havin' a warranteed machine, even as a PC tech...

Hope it's solved quickly, Ruthy!
