YEAH :) Thinking about this now, yes, it would have made sense to test |
| 13 |
with another PSU first. But it wasn't so obvious to me, I simply thought |
| 14 |
I had bad luck with a bad board, that died. Happens. |

So - instead of changing the PSU, the obvious culprit, you let it fry |
| 20 |
another board, and then... yet another one? Just saying :) |

I once had the opposite problem, a mainboard seemed to kill PSUs. That |
| 23 |
was weird. |

It's a PS/2 keyboard. |

I tried another one this morning, same problems. I guess the board is |
| 32 |
fried. So I'll order another one, and this time use another PSU. |

Wow, they say it will take 2-3 weeks. So I'll see if there's another |
| 35 |
board that will fulfill my needs... and there is. Radeon 3000 instead of |
| 36 |
4250, and I remember having big trouble with my last Radeon 3250 |
| 37 |
system... and no eSATA which I probably wouldn't miss anyway, but it |
| 38 |
also has no PATA at all. I can (and have to) live with this it seems, |
| 39 |
but it's somewhat inconvenient. |
