-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 If you are uncomfortable with a paperclip, a jumper should do the same job. A jumper is the small square plastic thing like what you have on the back of your hard drive or CD-ROM drive. If you happen to have a spare, you can use that. If not, just remember where you got it from on the back of your drive and put it back in the same place when you know if your computer is able to power on. As for frying something, all the pins in that area take low power and control lights and switches. If your computer isn't powered up when you connect a paperclip or a jumper to the pins you won't fry anything. But if you hit the right pins, be prepared to startle yourself a little by the thing just coming on. <smile> HTH, Lorenzo - -- Q: What's the difference between a dead dog in the road and a dead lawyer in the road? A: There are skid marks in front of the dog. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFEqKiPG9IpekrhBfIRAvAJAKCTG0KgTGrXh4lFXWWU9CgrVIknRACgtVlO HW7anyWBDsB9fiohs41zRfI= =C65i -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
