Re: Server nightmare

yeah, I'd think it was a bad power supply too, save for the fact I've tried 
3 now....
Motherboard isn't damaged - I sent it back to tyan and they say it works 
fine for them. The processors are the only thing that I've not ruled out. I 
can't image that I'd get 2 bad processors together though....I've tried them 
both seperately. It'd be nice to find someone with a board that takes these 
new nocona chips so I could test mine out.
