    Hey everyone! Bought my F8SV from one of the great resellers we have here on the forums years ago when it was released. Well she finally died on me the other day. I have mulitple HDD and I can hear them boot up in the background(windows start sound) but I have no screen or external screens (dvi and dsub). The system did boot the next day but stopped and hasnt since. It was on overnight when it died on a notebook cooler.

    My first guess is video (8600M GT) Any thoughts on possibly upgrading?

    Anyone have had these issues with their F8?

    If you have an old one for sale I'd entertain buying it to repair this one.

    Thanks !
