Unfortunately I had two PSU's go close together... I ended up having to put a 400W into a system that was working fine with a 250W PSU...

Yeah, well one of the hdd's is making a lot more noise than it used to, thats why I was trying to copy /usr to another drive so I can take the flaky one out... I did change a lot of hardware after the PSU died, like I took out a few PCI cards and a CD-Rom, and the CD-Rom in there is set to master with a slave attached, but there isnt a slave which causes a slight delay at boot time... But Im just trying to work out what exactly could be causing these Sig 11's, and all I have know to cause them is bad ram...
