    Silly me, I think I fried my Gigabyte M912M. Got a RAM upgrade to put in it, it refused to boot afterward; put the old RAM in and it still wouldn't boot. The hard drive spins up, but nothing else happens. There's also no numlock light on the thing, so I can't see if it's responsive or not.

    I'm not really looking forward to sending the thing back; any advice for other things I might try before calling up the US service center?

    That product isn't sold in the US (for absolutely no reason), so Gigabyte will not honor it's warranty or give support to their own product. Pretty nice of them, eh?
