    I hope all works out. I think that your tape drive and other stuff should be OK, they are pretty low voltages/amperages involved, and the mobo and power supply windings make a damn fine resistance barrier.........I am gessing it would have to go back through the PSU to hit the tape drive.

    Sounds like another day in paradise. Im going to go with nihil on this one. The tape drive etc etc should be okay. Sounds like maybe it fried the IDE controler? Either way it sucks. If you need anybody for a sounding board later I'll have AIM on.
