Computer fall down, go ffffpppt*

Greetings from Kinkos, where I am posting to let y'all know that my home box has gone on strike.

It started with a definite clicking sound on start-up. Then, the machine would suddenly mysteriously reset and go into the whole boot process at random moments. Now, it refuses to start at all.

sigh

Hopefully, it won't be something dreadfully expensive.

If you need to contact me, call me at (408) 269-3637.

Was indeed the PS, plus the fact that somewhere in the failure process the BIOS apparently became convinced that it had an 866MHZ CPU instead of a 433. Seems to be working now.
