>	This applies to more than old tractors and trucks.   :-)   One of 
my daughters dropped off an older computer she had gotten from her employer 
after the mother board of theirs got fried by lightning (and they were no 
where near Ricky's place). The older computer from work "ran when parked":-)  
but wouldn't work at their home. When I opened it up the first thing I 
spotted was that someone had pulled a couple of cards out of it and had 
somehow damaged one edge of the IDE to HDD cable cutting the #1 wire. I have 
a batch of those laying around so that was a 5 minute fix but it still would 
not boot properly. It was funny that it would boot laying on its side but not 
sitting up. I got to looking and someone had removed the two screws that held 
the panel that the mother board is attached to and it was able to move around 
a little bit. I replaced those screws making a good ground and it boots up 
fine now.
Check the grounds...
