| 577442 | 2007-08-07 04:29:00 | By green table I assume you mean motherboard? With all the capacitors etc etc. Inside the case, the only things that should be taken out are the RAM chips and any PCI cards. Unplug the keyboard, mouse, and everything from the back of the PC apart from the power cable. Then see what happens. |

| 577447 | 2007-08-07 04:51:00 | Those are expansion slots with a few expansion cards in them..if you can, take out all but the vid card... The vid card should have the long-ish connector in it (on the outside/back of the tower/case) that will have two thumb screws in it to hold the connector in...this SHOULD be the vid card. Leave it in for this test... all others are to be removed temporarily. |

| 577449 | 2007-08-07 04:59:00 | tables = cards I suspect the one with the "wires" is an audio card and they go to a cd-rom or dvd-rom..right? cd-rom/dvd-rom = cd or dvd player(s) on the front side of the tower..the ones with the drawers that slide open and look like cup holders |
