Um, let me know if you fix this, because this happened to me over a week ago (on a Dell). I have not yet worked myself up to calling the endless-hold people, though having neither TV nor internet access at home will push me to it soon. Luckily I was out of town earlier this week. I watched like 4 episodes of X Files in a row. It was not a good cure for insomnia.

I need to learn how to manage short trips to the east coast better. I feel like shit after them -- kills at least a day.

ETA, because I did not STP, I have not tried sticking the windows system disk thingies in the CD thingy to start it, but I pondered it. I too can't even get to the point where I would safe-start it anymore -- most recently, all it does if I press the power button is make the power and the hard drive lights go on (steady), blink the caps lock light 10 times, and then all goes dark. It really seems like it's trying to tell me something with that caps lock light, but I don't speak its language.

EATA, if the computer really is fried, I'm getting a mac next time.

A diagnosis can be performed for the price of one pitcher of mango sangria, so I hear.
