Only a suggestion. Matt ----- Original Message ----- From: GMan To: pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Monday, March 31, 2008 1:28 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: puzzling problem Matt, Part of my workbench is designed around a similar setup that includes an anti-static mat, a 1 inch thick foam pad and spares of nearly every type of add-in card ever made. As long as the issue of static electricity is properly addressed throughout all handling of the parts, it's a great way to troubleshoot without the case and cables in the way, but yes, it is a bit much to suggest to most folks. Luckily, Jo Ann is not "most folks" and may actually be able to use the idea. :O) Peace, G http://tinyurl.com/ypbuue "The only dumb questions are the ones we fail to ask!" --------------------------------------------------------------- Please remember to trim your replies (including this sentence and everything below it) and adjust the subject line as necessary.
