...phew!

New power supply in place, and Ethernet connection up and running as well. We're saving switching over to Linux for another day.

Thank you topbit - I probably could have sorted it without you but it would have been far more painful, worrying, slow and expensive.

ahh, good. That's what it sounded like to me too...

I don't know enough about hardware to have thought of that for myself. And if I hadn't had offsite technical support (meaning topbit), I'd have had to get my Mum to drive me and Charlotte to the shop, leave her there for them to look at, and probably pay another £50 or so for the guy in the shop to open up the case and replace the power supply, and then wait for Mum to be in the mood to go and pick Charlotte up again... it would have been a huge pain in the arse.

Just one more reason he makes me happy; as though I needed any more.
