[Cube] ADC-Display won't run with my cube

[Stefan]

Hi Luis,

thanks for answering.

Well, it was the same cube and the same Monitor.
It was a sudden crash or anything else (I was absent, my wife used 
the cube). The cube turned off, the TFT became dark.
Before the cube had run for several weeks and nothing had changed but 
the disk. And the disk became very hot as I remarked, when I was 
called and came to the cube.

That means: Same cube, same monitor, same graphics card.

Meanwhile I built in the old HD again.
And the cube runs very well, but not with the Formac TFT (ADC)-
