Thanks Michael,
What you said is not too comforting. On my machine, a host of problems
occured one month after warranty expired :-( I am trying different
killing fixes in the order of increasing damage now. The last resort -
throw the CPU in the trash - is coming up, as now it won't stay up and
running for more than 30 min. I think I know the thing to do: get new
motherboard, CPU, memory, video card and better power supply, bigger
hard drive and a new OS ...
Cheers,
Pavel
