I am one of the Lincoln people that keeps up on this list. Recently, the  
smoke tried very hard to get out of my computer, but somehow didn't quite  
manage it. The PC made a noise indistinguishable from a big moth hitting a  
bug zapper. Since then, the computer has run at what I would call a  
somewhat degraded quality. It locks up frequently, and usually resumes  
function after a bit. Sometimes it reboots instead.

Anyway, I would like to troubleshoot this to see what exactly happened. In  
order to do so, I would like to get ahold of a socket 939 motherboard and  
processor. If you can help with either, please let me know.

Thanks!
John Moran
