R.I.P My Compter

[GuardianAsher]

My computer is now dead... *sniffs*

I took it apart for normal cleaning. Put it back together, and it was working fine. But I noticed that something wasn't sticking right. It was acting funny. So I went into the BIOS, and noticed some of my settings were messed up. I tried to reset them, no go. I turned the computer off, set the CMOS Clear jumper, set it back, pressed the power button... nothing... not a damned thing. After troubleshooting, I narrowed it down to the motherboard going south. Go fig. I took the components out, and switched out the motherboards with a spare I had... my PSU went up in smoke... and it took out that motherboard. How wonderful.

Processor tested out OK, so I put it in my last spare Socket A motherboard, with a new PSU... and find out my HD is gone too. So now I have nothing but my AMD K6-2 laptop... damnit all to hell... and I'm dead broke...

hame hame ie ie

I feel your pain.

I'd say the original problem all along was the PSU. It damaged everything else.

Josh.. you know what I have on hand.. the DFI would fit in .. but it's untested.. and unproven.. CPU is 1700.. let me know.. you know how to get ahold of me..

Well, thanks to my friend Qui Gon-Jinn, it's running again! *does the happy dance* Proc and hard drive were fine, thank God. Now all i need is a new PSU. I'm running an old Bestec right now, until I can get up the money to get a new one. And FYI, Epox Support is worthless >.>
