I Reinstall this system completely and format the hard drives while you're at it, just to be safe. If there was a power failure and the machine stopped working the way it used to, then that's a sure sign that "something" got deleted or corrupted in the process, and ince figuring out what that "something" might have been could take you anywhere from a day to a month, it's a lot faster to simply back up your important files and install it again. And put this machine on a UPS, for god's sake! :-) Jordan
