nice setup you have there and an interesting website. nice 
photography!!

i had opened her up. the mo phat rom was in slot 3 so i put it in 
slot zero unscrewed everything from the bottom board and connectors 
in the rear pannel looked on both the top and bottom of the board 
and all connections looked crisp. so i took some q tips sticks and 
whateever else i could find and started poing inside of the main. 
then. then i started to blow in int. screwed everything back up, and 
now it works!!!

thanks man!! i guess when the shit hit's the fan i can actualy 
accomplish things on my own. (too bad the shit has to hit the fan 
first)
