OT!!! Awesome, i did what i hate more than anything in this world, to take on a computer, actually rip its guts out---12 bloody hours, i have not eaten nor taken pause--- i a tech stupido, have done it!!!! I am back on line.
I pulled the chassis 3 times, expanded, contracted rearranged slots, ran diabolical installations weaving thru multiple glitches from hell and even consulted TFM!!! 5 times.
I now know 500 times more about computers than i knew early this morning--AWESOME, i am juiced; a 64.11.5 year old has tackled the tech beast, i fell like i killed me A LION with my bare hands(LOL!!!!!). Max
