Generally, when this happens it's best to remove everything from the box except for things necessary. Remove it all except the video card, then try to boot and see if you can get the video's BIOS to pop up. Then put the memory back and try booting again. Then put the hard drive back in and try booting again. You should get the idea from here on out ;-) --- |> /\ \/ @ davidd@datasphereweb.com DataSphere - Databases, back end web programming and networking 360.656.6226 ICQ: 21106703 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
