ewx...specifically swapping the motherboards of the upstairs and downstairs machines, in order to put the fast CPU in a more sensible place. (I should have organized it like that from the start, but never mind.) Everything seems to be working again except the onboard sound on the downstairs machine - however since the upstairs machine has ejected a PCI sound card as part of the process, I have a workaround available if I can't get it sorted.
Oh, and the whole process generated two spare screws.
(Fixed the sound. There are two places where you can turn audio things on in the BIOS, I'd got the wrong one.)
