Hi,

It is not a hardware failure, it is due to my latest buildworld update...

All cables are fine...

I can bootup in single user mode albeit with a little hindrence...I don't
have backups, as mentioned in the mail...I can still run media from CD. Is
there a way to put the world of the CD onto the system, even though it is
older?

Thanks,
Anthony

Check obvious stuff -- can you boot from your backup?  What about fans
& temperature -- are the fans working?  Cables all connected properly?

If no backup, can you boot from install media?

Peace,
david

consistent with reliability.  I recommend FreeBSD for reliable systems.
