Well I knew it was going to happen one day or another. Like we all can't live forever. It all happen when I was browsing the SL forums one day and all of a sudden my screen flashed, and suddenly all these weird transparent lines poped-up all over my screen. To make this story short all my technical seacrhing for the problem has led me to the point that my GF 256 video card was over heating....as I did forget to clean it out. It died a horible death as the dust attacked the fan and stop it from moving. It was running on it own cooling for about a month, even many hours of trying to push it to play SL. And now I have to say goodbye to my friend that provided me many years of non-stop gaming. Goodbye good buddy. HELLOOOOOO Geforce FX!!  And new 360 W PSU!! P.S. Going to be away from SL as i get my computer running on the new GFX and PSU. Lots of wires to move and change around as my case has been modded with a lot of fans.  So hopefully i will be back in a week, online of course.

Hey Jason.. sorry to hear about the GF 256s passing, but I recall discussing it with you JUST the other day, so. <grins>
Having just got off of a week-long "tinkering" with my own finicky system, I wish you the best of luck -- and complete lack of formating.
