The machine won't boot from the CD anymore. I can't even get it into SETUP. It just hangs on this screen: (I had hit F2 to enter setup) Version 1.17.1057 Copyright 2005-2007 American Megatrends, Inc Entering SETUP.... Bios Version: S5000.86B ... etc Platform ID: S5000PAL 8 GB system memory found Current Memory Speed: 667 MT/s (333 MHz) Intel Xeon CPU E5345 @ 2.33Ghz Intel Xeon CPU E5345 @ 2.33 Ghz Booting from BIOS Partition 0 PS2 keyboard detected PS2 mouse detected <hang> The same thing happens if I don't hit F2, except it says Hit F2 to enter SETUP at the top. Well... I guess we are back to hardware problem? I'm not sure what else to try at this point. -- John
