F'n Computer AGAIN!?!

[Broin]

Well over the weekend my computer decided to take another nose dive.  I don't know what the hell is wrong with the damn thing... I've been through two power supplies, two sets of hard drives, something else, and now it appears my motherboard is blown.  

Looks like I'm going to be out of commission all this week until I get my new stuff in.  I also am going to be gone next week on a family vacation.  So I'll I won't be around until that last week of November, Crosses fingers.

Sorry guys...    :2'(

Been wondering what happened to you.  

[Anamodiel]

I hope your computer feels better!!

[Tecknik]

That sucks, Broin.

What kind of motherboard?

[NoCry]

sorry to hear that old boy.

[Adad]

GL Broin... you know there is a thing called a surge protector....

[Tbone]

Geez, you have worse luck than I do. I finally had some free time and logged in game for a bit tonight. Bell and I messed around in those white hallways, but we really just needed one more hacker...tsk tsk.

Broin, look into getting a "line conditioner".  If your problems turn out to be power related a line conditioner will not only act as a surge protector but make sure your power coming to your pc is clean and filtered, it'll also make sure there are not spikes nor drags in your power.

Yeah, Broin plugged in his vibrator again and it caused a power spike throughout the entire house.

[Broin]

Line conditioner aye... I think I'll have to look that up because something is seriously going on down here.  I have a huge surge protector this one here

So where do I find a good line conditioner?  

I know just when I get everything all set up the way I like it something always goes to crap    

The motherboard is an Asus so I guess I need to go and look one up on newegg...  I guess the best thing about this is I have a new computer guy.  The other one I wasn't so happy with so... I let him know my displeasure.

and he was last seen floating down a river somewhere (I think the Hudson river although, other than the mississsippppioiii river, I know of no other rivers in USA)

[Broin]

Motherboard replacement suggestions anyone?   Asus is what I had I'm assuming I need to stick with that to keep my dual Nvidia dreams alive...?   I'm using OCZ platinum edition DDR ram.  I mean I guess it's DDR... pc3200 1024MB EL Dual Ch Platinum Edition 2-3-2-5 or some such...

Would getting two more stick of RAM be worthwhile since I'm upgrading anyways?

[Lithium]

Its a lot more important you get a motherboard that accepts your processor and pin configuartion of the processor...

[Pirus]

aww comeo n Nocry what about the great Colorado river? (the one that carved out the grand canyon)
