    Possible bad CPU?

    Possible bad CPU?

    just a note: I also had boot up problems in my old system, where it would just hang with no video when powering up. assumed it was the mobo so i bought a new one. In both cases the system was stable once in windows. Only during boot ups i had problems.

    Semi-warm Canon S30 $279 plus tax

    I ordered mine 1/1 for $349 and used the $20 off code. $329 shipped, Woohoo should arrive 1/9. EDIT: Doh! I realized there is a active $50 of $200+ purchase. Is there anyway I could use this to get it to 299? Thanks
