Hi Guys & Gals,

    I find myself in need of some help.  I think my computer crash big time
today.  Here is what happen.

    First it froze up, even the mouse pointer would not move.  I tried the
old Ctl, Alt, Del reset but nothing happened so I pushed the reset button.
That was all she wrote so to speak.  The monitor went to a black screen, the
hard drive light went on and the CD light went on.  There it sat, not doing
anything.  I tried to shut it off but the power button would not work so I
unplugged it.  I waited for approximately 3 minutes and plugged it back in,
Nothing.  It just sat there again, lights on but nobody home.  It doesn't
even go through the Power On Self Test.

    I think maybe the system board, how do you all see the solution to this
problem.  Any and all help will be appreciated.

TIA
john hillen
