In all reality that's pretty much all I could come up with is an internal short somewhere. HW was hearing nothing of it. It had to be my configuration they said.

Like I told them... I could really care less about having to have it repaired or whatever. My thing is I don't want it to happen again because of something I missed or, am missing.
