We definitely need a pic of you in the car! Congrats.

I'm very proud of myself today. After having misc computer issues (BSOD's) for the last 2 weeks or so, everything pointed to the mobo going bad.

I've changed out all sorts of parts before but never the whole motherboard. Luckily, we had the same model (but the "deluxe" edition of it) in a spare box I'd been using for various parts.

After some hesitation, calling for help that wasn't available, getting told 3-5 days from our off site computer help, I went digging and found the book for it - which had the diagram with the one part I couldn't figure out.

Ta-Da! Fired up and I'm back baby!

First time is hardest. Let's still hope that there's not a second time anytime soon.
