I need urgent help.  My computer suddnely went crazy and refused to boot.
It's a Celeron 266 on a Tomato BX mainboard.  The display card was a PC
Partner Trident 9750 AGP 4M.  It has been up and running for nearly 2 years.
Last week It stopped working.  All my efforts to reboot the poor thing
failed.  No POST, nothing but the HDD LED lights continuously.
I have believed that the AGP slot somehow has been damaged (poor contact.
bent contacts...) and have grabbed a new PCI video card.  Put it in, booted
and nothing happened.  1 out of the 50 boot efforst I get through the POST
and tyhat all.  Check the video processor on the card = very hot.  Puit the
AGP card into place and check = after not even 30 seconds it becomes so hot.

My questions:
- What could be misfunctioning?  MB, video cards, bios, PS or whatever you
could think of?
- Could it be the MB (or PS) produced un-normal voltage for the AGP, PCI
devices and has fried my video cards?
- If the MB needed to be changed will a new MB with sound and video on-board
better? (I'm using mostly for typing and number crunching, no game or
serious multimedia applications).

Thanks in advance!
