I just had a Desktop box fail (No Nothing) here after being off for a month and it was solved by cleaning the video card , memory and network contacts. We are in Hawaii where it is cool at night and warm in the day and our office is only screens so its open to the elements. Sometimes the corrosion gets to the contacts and I have to clean the cards and connectors with alcohol and up it comes. ~Al Plant - Honolulu, Hawaii - Phone: 808-284-2740 + http://hawaiidakine.com + http://freebsdinfo.org + + http://aloha50.net - Supporting - FreeBSD 6.* - 7.* - 8.* + < email: noc@hdk5.net > "All that's really worth doing is what we do for others."- Lewis Carrol
