Sid,
I can give that a try when I have the new drive booted. At the moment I'm waiting for a new motherboard and memory as there is a hardware problem, especially noticeable during a kernel build, make && make modules_install a number of times gets it built and it boots. Odd problems appear elsewhere also.
You have tried a new PSU (or a swap from another system) _before_ condemning the mobo...?
My experience of faults like this is that the PSU is often the culprit (and cheap and easy to swap!)
The PSU was tested out on another box with similar hardware and extra cards. I have had a number of PSU's fail, some within a few months of new. An upgrade was on the cards anyway and all the bits including a 600W PSU were delivered 20 minutes ago. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...
