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.

Regards
Glenn
