Hello, this isnt half as bad but i had an abit bp6 with two processors
and lots of ram [258mb was a lot at the time] I only had it for two
weeks before i fried it! -doh! that machine was the only smp box ihave
had and was so quick. Nevermind.

so i sympathise, hope tomorrow doesnt bring too much bad news!

hugh
