Computer borked.


Was around 11pm last night and it just shut off, hit the power button to turn it back on and it flashed. Hope nothing is too wrong. The status light on the mobo stays on as to suggest its receiving power still.

Going to take it to eden, got the key from Dan, going to test the power supply out see if its just going bad. I sincerely hope everything isnt just fried. I so dont have money to get another one right now. Crud! What am I going to do this weekend!?!!! Ugh!

The sucker I am I didnt see it flash the first time I hit the button. unplugged it, replugged it in and did it again. Noticed a flash as I plugged it in, otherwise nothing but the status light.

Putting numbers together for a new comp now. Ive got around $450 without tax and shipping. Mobo/CPU/RAM/Vid card/HD

Ill be able to keep the rest I hope. Although a new case would be cool. I always hated mine.

mine was slightly over 1000 and it kicks ass, I am going to get a better cpu cooler and overclock it and possibly run SLI 8800 GTS

if you're in a cash crunch, check out TOm's hardware, they had a guide a month or so back about building a gaming PC on the cheap.

I went with a mid/high range compy cause I had the cash
