Silicon Sammy Survives Suicide

I finally got back my machine, boy does that suck.

I took it to the repair shop and after 2 to 3 weeks they figured out the problem was the memory and board. Wow, this is the first time in my life where a part has just failed before it was even used.

Good by old A8N32-SLI deluxe
Good by old OCZ PC-4000 2GB EB Dual Channel Memory Revision 1

I'm getting you replaced, they'll take you apart and reassable you. If the operation isn't successful, well, we'll bury you in PC part heaven (dumpster).

So I got a brand new board, and new memory. Revision 1 is stop being made because of revision 2, so they just upgraded the memory for me.

Huzzah!
