Larian Studios Forums General Chat Chat (Anything) Computer problem

talk about techies in the forum, man are there more than these?

i hope fei hung finds out soon enough on what's wrong with his system.

by the way, some motherboards, or mobo's as some techies called it, have LED codes for u 2 read so u can tell the status of your system. audible codes help but up 2 certain degree only.

whatever it is, it's defintely hardware prob & i hope nothing got burnt. reminds me of my old mobo that blew a few capacitors. some people reported that they took out the blown caps & replaced them. it worked for some.

clogged processor fan can be a b*tch sometimes. so for those who dare open their computer case, better clean up that fan once a month or so if it gets dusty or u'll have 2 get yourself new proc + mobo + maybe even RAM.

hey, deathatthedoor, shyon's ideas are pretty valid. in fact i practised almost the same method. & as for your battery method, it's nice for old mobos which u've lost its manual books. but it's strictly 4 hardware geeks.
