I came home yesterday afternoon and my main squeeze was dead.
I think it's the mobo. The only thing I haven't checked is my video card because I don't have another one for swappage. I'll have to pull one.
I have been reduced to pulling a Compact (I've always wanted to say that) Presario off the basement shelf. It's got about as much ass a a pocket calculator.
It's the first time I've ever had a crash on my main machine, so I guess I can't complain too much.
Condolences will be appreciated.

I got her up and running again. I dropped a pci vga card in her and she's running. I don't have an agp vga card lying around, so I'm going to pick one up.
At this point it's either my 9800 pro or my agp slot in my mobo is borked.
If it's the pro, I'll rma it, hawk it on fs/t and move on up to sli with a couple 6600gt's.
Is there a decent socket 754 sli board out there?
 
My condolences. Keep to short sentences and smaller words with the "compact", you'll get by till the cavalry arrives.

I too suffered a loss; just last night my beloved Logitech mx700 stopped working, I'm using an ancient thing that for some reason has a ball in it and a c... co... cord coming out of it 🙁

Omg....I think they used those in the dark ages...something about not having invented electricity yet...or something.

Not a cord, man!!! Say it ain't so. 🙁
Fortunately my mx700 is still okay. I thought she was the problem initially when I moved her around and nothing happened.
This may be God speaking. I thought I heard him say "SLI".

Oh, and sorry for your loss. I know how it must hurt. 🙁
 
Most of us would be silently cheering the demise of our machines... it gives you a solid case for upgrading! 😉

I'm pretty sure that NF4 doesn't even support 754, but I'm not 100% certain.
