    2-3 slipping question

    You will likely get an O/D light in the future. Ford kept telling me that they couldn't replicate the problem. When the O/D light did come on, it was too late and the gasket had blown.

    Good fight

    Sweet. Looked like a mismatch with the dominance of your guy. As an instructor, do you recommend going through the ranks of a traditional art before jumping into MMA? I've been debating on whether to commit to training. Currently self disciplined in a variety of arts.

    Popping sound, it's continuous...

    Popping sound, it's continuous...

    New Homerun King

    CRT Televisions

    I bought a 32" JVC CRT TV back in 1999 for $200. It still performs like new but is heavy and bulky. I wouldn't put that much into a CRT with the prices of LCD's and plasma these days. Spend a little more and be happy.

    Computer problems

    As JD mentioned, try it with only the mobo, memory and proc. I would use the 661FX with the onboard video and alternate memory slots to troubleshoot memory banks. If you are reseating the proc, you might want to clean and re-apply grease. The only time I've ever had a problem like this it was...

    Computer problems

    My first guess would be the processor. Did you use grease? Too much, too little? Since you've been able to try 2 mobos, I would think that is your problem. When you used the mobo with onboard video, did you have the ATI slotted?

    OT: Stranger in a strange land
