not really sure but my guess is either power issue

Hmm, the power supply was working fine before, but I do notice that the fans seem to run quite slow now.

or the overheating has caused serious damage to the chips

I hope not, cgminer monitors the chip's temperature and shuts them down if they overheat.  I spoke to the cgminer people and they said that it should be ok to leave it running because of this.

I previously got my ModMiner working with cgminer, it would mine for an hour but then it would shut down due to overheating.

However, now, whenever I plug in the ModMiner - all 5 lights flash rapidly as soon as it powers up (the light on each board, and the light on the main board also).

I'm not sure what changed - what would cause this?
