Journal Journal: Wheee! Explody mobo!

Was using Phoenix last night, case temps/CPU temps were peachy (30 and 47C, respectively... stupid stock cooler), then all of a sudden, screen goes blank, HD LED comes on, and nothing works. Reset button does nothing. I cycle the power, the thing doesn't post. Argh. I clear the CMOS, get rid of all the IDE devices... nothing.

So 15 minutes later, I ordered a KT333 mobo from Newegg to hold me over till Hammer. Man, KT266s suck. KT266A is good. KT266 is The Devil, as they say.

But, it might be my proc. So if you have a spare TBird or Palomino lying around, lemme know
