<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Your System Board has failed. &nbsp;The
ATI display chips are on a PCB carrier that is soldered into the main PCB,
and (usually due to flexing or pressure around the spacebar and trackpoint
buttons) the internal soldering has broken. &nbsp;Problem in its earliest
stages will be temperature and pressure sensitive, later it will become
more pronounced with system freeze-ups and reboots.</font>
