======================

    Hello Jim, nice talking to you !  

 JH> Hee. You can't fool me a bit. You're just being nice to me because I
 JH> have something you want.  (Wrapped and ready to go, but I couldn't
 JH> mail it today because the PO's are closed in honor of Pres. Ford).

        No, honest, I did not know but I will be thankfull. Let me
   know how much so I can mail a duccat or two.

 JH> I see your other friends here are not too happy with you referring to
 JH> them as "peons."   Serves you right.  [;-D.
 
        No way, this is a great community, very friendly and human at
   that. There was a dubious one but the Lord is now bothered with
   him, I hope.

 JH> BIR, Y2K was probably before the days of variable speed cpu and other
 JH> fans.  I probably guessed wrong.
 
        This Compaq is running XP. Well it was last night. I left it
   running over night again but with the case closed up and this
   morning, it was dead, frozen. Where are you suggesting would be the
   heat problem ?

 JH> I see from later post that you have that one figured out.  This new
 JH> one is an Athlon64 3200+, I think, and I had to hit the F2 key very
 JH> quickly, it gets into POST so fast.
 
        This Compaq also is an Athlon, a 950 MHz. I now have it reset
   with the side open, just to confirm that it really needs cooling
   air. Today, my project is to see if I can instal an extra case fan
   in it, there is a pad for one and I do have one laying around,
   still have to find a connector on the MoBo.

 JH> Good thing you have your own room for this stuff.  Sally gets upset
 JH> when I leave the side or cover off of the computer case.  She likes
 JH> things to look neat and pretty.  Women can be annoying, but they help
 JH> keep us civilized.
 
        Yes, it is nice having my own realm. L. is just like S., she
   likes to even run this new room of mine. I like to give her the
   impression that she does and she thinks that she does. Hooots.

 JH> No need for them here right now.  I have DSL now, so I can quickly get
 JH> them if need comes up.  Thanks anyway.
 
        Aida now replaced by Everest is no longer free. I kept the
   both of them as free apps. Even with DSL, you would have to use
   your credit card. Let me know.

 JH> I see where other folks here have cautioned about static electricity. 

        I do worry about it and take very basic precautions, no static
   mat nor bracelet. So far, I have been lucky.

 JH> Hee. I do pretty much have a direct connection, but He doesn't always
 JH> seem to take my advice.  Good kids, good grandkids; both are
 JH> blessings. 

        Say that again. My son turned 51 yesterday. He took after me
   and flies the Airbus. Beats working for a living.
     
       
.....   This G cable I/F is great.
          The deal was very good too.
