I like troubleshooting my own tech probs, and i this time is no exception, although I am chastened; the prob turned out to be improperly pin alignment where i attached a couple power cables to the power bus...can't believe that nothing got fried, but that appears to be the case.... While doing the troubleshooting, i broke off yet another power cable clip (ie/ i'm talking about the ends of the power cables running between the PSU and busboard, specifically the metal part that fits over one of the bayonets on the PSU or bus board)... Anyone else think that these clips fit just a little too tightly? Everytime I remove one, I feel lucky not to tear the bayonet right out of the board -- it's like a strength test.
