just out of curiosity, did anyone else happen to look at the voltages in his post?
"Voltage Sensor(s)
CPU Voltage : 1.58V
+3.3V Voltage : 3.17V
+5V Voltage : 5.08V
+12V Voltage : 11.31V
-12V Voltage : 0.47V
-5V Voltage : 1.69V
Standby Voltage : 4.90V
Battery Voltage : 0.03V"
not that it would necessarily be the source of the problem, but haveing 0.47V instead of -12 and 1.69 instead of -5 cant be good...
