Hi All,

The mobo on the projects bench machine (combto) appears to have died - 
it's not initialising USB devices at boot so no keyboard, and I can't get 
graphics to work despite testing multiple graphics cards. I would normally 
try a new bios battery at this point, but we are out of CR2032 batteries 
in the tool cupboard. Anyway, it's probably a good time to go and upgrade 
a clubroom desktop or two now anyway, then we can use the old bits for 
combto. Can anyone help with making this happen? Also, what's the oldest 
machine in the room at the moment?

Thanks,

Andrew Adamson
