Have had to clone a few PCs today - identical Dell Vostro 430s - using Clonezilla. Halfway through the 2nd, the target machine just went blank, and the fan started whizzing up.
Now it won't boot, and there's no POST beeps. I have removed and replaced the AGP card, memory and CPU. I also swapped the PSU for another.
Luckily it's not the end of the world (so the client says), but I just wondered if there's anything else simple, before I put it on eBay as a paperweight ;)
