It went into Dead Parrot Mode again. When I first fired up, it ran "True

Now, it won't come up at all. So much for Ubuntu TV. I swear, I'm going to

With the problem being so variable is it possible that you have a
hardware problem? Perhaps the drive is on the way out, or something
on the mother board.

My main board in for repair is an AMD. That's all I'[ve run for years. This is my first Intel MB, and it's given me nothing but fits. Any more of this and I'll be pronounced "king" for St Vitus Day. Maybe I'll install the 3/1 inch floppy drive and flash this thing, just for ducks. The DVD player fired up "Dick Tracy and Nancy Drew" like a champ. Yeah... don't say it, although they don't make 'em like Nancy anymore. :) But it really hates Arnold and Hogwarts. If it won't play Monty Python, Ill take a hammer to it. Will 11.10 support a floppy?? Ric
