I'm seeing NO errors.  I do know how to review the error log.

That's why I'm suspicious of the power.  It's just like someone pulled the plug.

Of course, when I set up this new computer room a couple of years ago, I purchased the 
wire and supplies to run a dedicated line from the circuit breaker box, on a separate 
breaker, to the room.  The wire and supplies still sit where I left them, and I'm using a 
wall outlet.

Some people might suggest that it's past time for me to reap the rewards of my laziness.
