Re: Help Culhwch buy a new computer!

That's the one. There's a seperate power cable for the two effect LEDs, so it's not that. Oh, well. Time to fire it up and see what happens...

Re: Help Culhwch buy a new computer!

Well, update time - she's purring like a kitten! I cannot tell you how stunned I am. Switched on first go, no real issues. Well, the HDD light must be plugged in wrong, it doesn't go, but other than that, everything seems to be working as it should. Fingers, of course, crossed, and knock on wood and all that. I've had a long day installing everything and ironing out the the little kinks that have popped up, and I'm yet to get our local connection working. But I've just played through the tutorial of Medieval II: Total War, and I'm at this instant a happy man!

The other half says to try turning your HDD light cable around.

You have the same chip as we do too so should keep you happy for a bit.

It's all together and sealed up now, so I'll wait until I need to go back inside. I figure there's no rush!
