My team 93 touring rig has had an accident added an extra 512Mb of pc3200, and did some dusting turned it on and lights fans spin and a smell of cooking dust, and nowt else. He will have open case surgery in the morning.:eek::confused:

PS 300 hours into a 400 hour WU.

    Hope the WU takes up again from the last auto save point, (that's what mine does - frequent rural power cuts).

    Lets hope you don't have to have "transplant" surgery :)

    Love the new avatar Spike

    It should survive it was stopped when the accident occurred, and it can go live in another box with the same MOBO, hopefully no permanent loss, as a forum Moderator on the Micromart-UK website I should know enough to rebuild him;)

    Aahh another true believer, yes it may have run out of smoke. Luckilly i have another which is fully smoked up to trial with, though the MOBO is my Primesuspect:wink:

    well it is the MOBO luckilly I have another of the same type should be up and running tommorow.:D should have an athlon 2600 soon, a step up from the sempron IMO.

    ITS ALIVE only silly is I have the athlon 2200 from the donor rig in it but mebbe the increase in 2nd level cache may help. fold on
