I figured that a boot log would be requested.. I can do that, but I need to wait until I get back home. I dont have a serial cable that I can use here at work and I am a computer guy. How sad is that?!

Yes, same symptoms on the AC adaptor, only the pause between boots is shorter.

I suspect my second drive may not be spinning. Its hard to tell without cracking the case but again, that needs to wait until I get home. I just dont have the tools I need here.

Life really sucks without an empeg, ya know?
