Wow, thanks Greg.  Now to convince them to take it and fix it.  ARGH ;)
Called them this morning, couldn't get pas the tech 1's, they told me to
whipe my drive reinstall Win2k -- I told them I already did that, they
told me to do it again.  Time before they told me to reset my BIOS.  I
suspect both times it'll stop from doing it for a few weeks then start
up again.   At least it isn't smoking or anything silly like that.

I suspect I'm going to just give up, put in my Win2k drive, then send it
in while I'm on vacation.   See if I can get them to do a delayed return
on it so it returns once I'm back.. That'd be nice.
