Doctor Olds I Need A Remedy For What's Ailing Me. Premium,VIP join:2001-04-19 1970 442 W30 clubs:	reply to lmacmil Re: [XP Home] Mobo swap without repair install said by lmacmil : The mobo on the XP box sometimes takes several attempts to boot, freezing on the BIOS screen right after it says "detecting IDE drives." Boot failure occurs more often on warm starts than cold. Once running, it's very stable. Do you own a ATX PSU tester? If not, I suggest you invest in a decent one (under $20.00). Also, get a good look at all the caps on the motherboards and look for any with swollen tops. Even a small bump on the normally flat tops is a bad cap that needs replacement. Regards, Doctor Olds -- What’s the point of owning a supercar if you can’t scare yourself stupid from time to time?
