Hi to everyone, explanation of my sudden silence follows.
My poor old computer (it served me faithfully for six years) seems to be finally passing away. Hardware shows significant signs of exhaustion. So my current tools are mostly a screwdriver, a blowtorch and likes... 30 minutes of more or less stable uptime is what I succeeded to achieve so far.
Well, in the end, I may be able to revive it, and I may be not. If not, it'll take some time to get new one. There is no telling what time exactly all this will take. Shall try to update my status asap.
You never get involved in a pig fight. If you do, three things happen: you get dirty, you get tired, and only the pig has fun.

A blowtorch!? I think I can see your problem right there...

Yea, I guessed you meant a soldering thing. Deliberately misunderstanding is funnier though.

I guessed that you guessed that ;-)
But I imagined how would it look...

p.s.: so far seems to be working just fine while it's not about high resource load, for ex., internet surfing. Diggin' deeper...

Almost there. All that happened because of sudden weather change to -35 Celsius. Communal town heating control department (uh... if I speak unclean - i'm about the office that provides warmth and hot water in houses) showed grieving latency reacting to this change, thus threating people to experience below 10 Celsius at home (thus if one doesn't have electric heaters) for about 20 hours. My hardware disliked all this mess critically. ATM all runs way too slow, excluding light tasks like internet browsing (while it's not up to advanced SWF's) and code editor. Thus said, I indeed can proceed with coding, BUT I can't properly test what I do. Currently sparing some money for new hard drive and (again!) power supply unit. It's less than entire new computer, but will still take some time, because I must take my small daughter and wife into account first...
