In a quite bizarre timing, I was just taking photos of my lightbar for Weblacky and thought that, hey, the Octane is on, will play some Doom. Literally 15 seconds after I sent the pictures.
I went to switch user, clicked Logout and the screen scrolled up a bit, distorted and went blank.

I hit the reset button and red (I think - colorblind here) lightbar, attached the serial cable and got:

PANIC: Unexpected exception

[Press reset or ENTER to restart.]

The error comes less than half second after pushing the power button.
Pressing enter does nothing, reset gives me the same error.

I googled a bit around, checked quickly the forums... and...
Before I go and replace my graphics card (it's the only spare part I own)... since I hate the connector, thought of asking around first.

I am sad. =(

forgot to mention I saw this post:
