Sorry to hear that But maybe it will hake you feel better to know I had 5 Q6600 Motherboards burn up since the 1st of the year:swear:

Hope there isn't too much damage - hope it's just the quad or if it's anything on-board that it's replaceable with a card.

popped it in had fairly minor hassles conecting it all up plugged in the power...and nothing.

:swear:

Tried the power cord that came with it..... nothing

:swear::swear:

Tried a different socket, checked everyhting was seated OK, even though I knew that wouldn't make a difference.... nothing.

:cry:

Turns out that when i removed all the old cabling one of the molex connectors had hooked out the powersw connector on the pin array. Plugged that back in and off we jolly well go again.:banana::banana:
