[QUOTE="muso, post: 23888, member: 40"] Hmm, that's quite a pickle you're in there. You didn't mention you have reseated the memory chips - that's sometimes a cause for problems. If that doesn't work your motherboard is possibly stuffed. You could take it in to an authorised service provider and get them just to check that for you - if it is then I suggest you look at taking the hard drive out, backing up the data and buying a new/second hand computer. It may well be cheaper than trying to get it fixed. [/QUOTE]
