Day three of setup after getting my IWill motherboard back, and everything was going smoothly. Ran CPUBurn for three hours to get some baseline temps, and installed 3DMark2000. Failed on first attempt to run the benchmark, so I rebooted. Just made it into Windows, locked up. Reboot again, no post. Unhooked everything, humped it to the workbench, and lo and behold, the waterblock sprang a small leak. Everything felt dry, but I suspect some coolant dripped onto the transistors and capacitors below the socket. I breathed a sigh of relief when the 1.2G(266) TBird fired up on another board. However, the Iwill may be done in. I'm letting it dry out with a bunch of fans on it, and will find out the good news tomorrow.
