- A friend of mine had the same problem as well with her IIsi, and she ended
- up having the manufacturers repair it under warranty by giving them the CPU.
- This is most definitely not the only solution, but it CAN be fixed pretty
- quickly by manufacturers/repair groups... if it's still under warranty, this is
- your best and safest bet, because if you try to do something inside, and
- something else breaks, say g'bye to the warranty... :) Hope this helps...
