It seems that I have a little bad luck with hardware the last time. Todays first issue was, that S.M.A.R.T. told me I should backup my HDD as soon as possible because it will loose data in less than 24 hours... OK, thats a great start in the day. After I plugged another drive on the bus to make backup everything works fine and S.M.A.R.T. doesn't bleat me anymore. Mysteroius...

Anyway the chaos was not finished. I thought "fine everything is OK now, let's get back to work...". But what's that? The graphics cards doesn't sent any signal to the monitor! >:-( Something came to my mind: "That must be my lucky day!?". Did i mentioned, that today is the first day of my vacation? ;-)

OK, I had to swallow the bitter pill and so I bought a new graphics card... *argh* The only positive thing on this whole affair is, that I had to go to the city and so made some urgent transactions and I have a new graphics card. ;-)

Greets,

P.S.: I'm very curious when the next problem comes up...
