It's got to be the MB. I did the jumper test as shown in the youtube vid, and the PS fan activated.

Guess it's time to upgrade then.

Glad that video helped you out Jim!

x2 upgrade seems a no brainer now

I ordered a Dell XPS 8500 last night, with an Intel i7 processor, 8GB RAM, 2TB HD. I'll probably add an additional 8GB of memory at some point, since there are two open slots.

that'll last you a while. the i7's for the most part are overpowered for today's capabilities(unless you're doing 3d modeling, tons of video coding, etc)

It wasn't much of a leap to go from the i5/1TB HD to the i7/2TB HD, although I know I'll never need the added power.
