2hrs it's taken to get my PC working again. It seems the graphics card has died. Or is it a resource conflict? Windows thinks the former. 12:17:41, 2013-12-26
Now running on my old graphics card with 1/8th the memory. Even typing this on screen is lagging behind keystrokes. 12:18:38, 2013-12-26
Upside: The graphics card is fine. It was a PCI conflict caused by the soundcard failing. Downside: The soundcard is dead, so no headphones. 18:08:34, 2013-12-26
The Intel HD audio "compatible" connector isn't compatible with the AC97 front panel. And the 6 rear ports can't be reconfigured. 18:09:45, 2013-12-26
Will dig about in my computer spares and see if I have a front-panel I can bodge. 18:10:20, 2013-12-26
