How current is your BIOS? It may be part of the problem.

    My system is grounded (once I moved into a farm only aftergrounding one of the plugs where I wanted to use my computer. Theelectrical network here in Brazil is not exactly one of the bests ofthe world :-) ). But I'm not really sure if that's a hardware issue,than it only happens when I use dyne. With other distros (tried atleast another 5 on the last months) the system works perfectly. That'sthe strange point. 


     Anyway thanks again for the tip.

Make sure your electrical system is properly grounded (la tierra). Itis
vital for the well being of your PC... Where I live, plenty of usershave
electricity without ground (you know, that long metal stick, plantedinto
the ground, that connects to the 3rd hole in the plug)...
So it possibly is the source of your hardware problem...

Hasta luego,

M.
