Thread: things dont turn on. And you upgrade to new stuff.

So two weeks ago i was surfing the internet and my computer randomly shut off. Figured that i must have either pulled the plug out or hit my power strip off. Not a big deal, simple to fix that. Nope, i didn't pull the plug or turn off my power strip. Try and turn on my computer. Nothing. Thinking i over wattaged my PSU for too long, i ordered a 800watt. New power supply comes in, hook everything up, hit the power switch. Nothing. My motherboard died !

Buy a new motherboard since mine had no warranty left, and i got some ddr3 memory because its about time i upgraded. Spend over $300 on new gear.

For Christmas i got an SSD and now im going through the painful process of finding out what programs don't work straight off my second drive (1tb) and having to reinstall those onto my second drive. And because of that, im running out of space. The things i do just to play a damn game. Hope to be back on the servers sometime soon.

Ya, thats kinda like the same boat that im in only mines a bit different, Bought a whole new computer put it all together and had to reinstall windows, Fine no big deal, I do it and it installs my boot files on my second HDD and installs windows 7 to my Main 1TB HDD, So i have to reinstall again but disconnect the 2nd drive this time around, however im just to dam lazy to do it..
