980 is dead. Won't boot at all. 920 boots fine. After i re-flased the bios, installed a new os and tried diff. ram/video card. I think i got it covered. Its dead.probably the prblem all along why i was crashing so freakin much. Oh crap i have 14 days to return the lightning. No way i'l have a new chip in time to see. With any luck RMA Golden B Batch.

Well I got my IDE drive prepped up for 01 this morning. This will be for some testing, but should net a couple hw boints. Now the question is if my damn baby will ever go to bed and stay to bed so I can have some free time. :(

Dude it is horrible right now. I was telling Kal the other day I was getting ready to bench this 8800GTS so that means in about six months I should have it done, rofl. The baby won't take naps or go to bed at a decent hour. Then she won't sleep at night. She's like the energizer bunny. Frackin' killing me man.

You have to do like I did, pre-plan it about a month out! I had my mom ready to babysit the day of my 1st LN2 session. Had the wife on board that I wasn't to be jacked with all day that day. Worked out great. I also have an agreement with the wife that Friday nights from when the baby goes to sleep (usually about 7:30pm) and on is my bench night. Just don't have the fundage for it right now. In about 2 weeks I will be kicking it off again. I could go the dice route but why waste my time. Once you go LN2 anything less would be uncivilized.
