heh, most new machines won't work with an isa card, mainly because they don't
have isa slots :) but i agree with your discipline here, motherboard, ram,
cpu+cooler and gfx card nothing else and try it. If it don't work at this point
try it without the gfx card or with a borrowed one. and also try just one Ram
module etc. and swapping them if you can. If it works add one component at a
time and see when it stops, although that component may not of course be the
problem. It may just show up as a symptom of something else.
