That's not a guido. Also, kenji's avatar is pretty and all, but the tattoos kinda ruin it. It's not that I'm against tattoos, it's just that those particular ones are all over the face and in stark contrast to the hair and skin, making everything hard to see.

Fine, ok, i'll stop. :( i started using it ironically in eve to vex people and it stuck.

I got 500mb, so ok. Well, I suppose that's not huge, but it's sizeable enough.
Computer broke yesterday :(
Won't even start up for longer than 1 minute, I am definitely missing GW2 thing. If it weren't for my friend lending me his laptop, I wouldn't even be able to Google efficiently, or post here.

Sounds like a hardware issue, possibly ram. If it is than you could fix it in literally 10 min for under $80.
10 am tomorrow. When is that in UTC time?
[QUOTE=General;36505512]10 am tomorrow. When is that in UTC time?[/QUOTE]
10AM UTC -8, so 6pm UTC 0.
I'm gonna try out Catacombs explorable tomorrow, anyone wanna come with? Afterwards I'll just hang out with the bros on Moledune.

I tested each of the pieces except CPU, PSU, and Mobo (didn't have any spares of those to test with).
It might be CPU fan being loose, but I'm just going to let a computer repair guy fix it, there's a reasonable one nearby. He also thinks it may be that, and has a replacement fan. If not, he will repair it, so whatever. This is above my skill set, and I built the computer.
What exactly is the issue/error?
Some of us here have some high technical skill sets.

Wait a minute, I remember having that problem too. It was that my CPU was loose, underneath the fan. I just pushed it back in.

Computer starts up, doesn't see any hard drives, and turns off within the minute. If you keep trying, the time it stays on reduces. (IE, first 1 minute, then 30 seconds, then like 5 seconds, or whatever)
The thermal paste between the fan and CPU is broken, as well as the fan not being seated very well anymore, so it is probably the CPU turning the computer off to protect itself. If not that, then the computer has other problems I don't even know what to do with. Like, I don't know why it can't see any hard drives (I have tried 4 different ones) as well as shutting off
The guy already has it, place has good reviews on prices and whatnot. At the time I gave it to him, I didn't have any computer to use, and I don't have much time to bugfix - take home Calc 4 test coming up, and the last one took me 3 days to finish.
@Pie, Once I learned that the fan was loose, I tried reseating the CPU and whatnot, it didn't help.
That's weird how it was able to boot but not display and hard drives? That means it was able to atleast detect the primary drive and the bootmgr. Have you messed around within Safe Mode yet?
Anyways it's pointless to try to troubleshoot it now that "the guy" has it.

100% sounds like a heat issue because of the decreased working time with each try. You are probably right about either the thermal paste or fan not being connected correctly.
Window safe mode? I don't even get to the windows screen. It shuts off before I even see anything windows related. When I say boot, I mean turn on, sorry about that. The farthest it ever got was asking me for an OS installation CD, since nothing was found. And then it crashed anyway.
At some point it said that bootmgr wasn't found. It has been changing messages pretty often, even when I didnt change anything between reboots.

@sgman
Yeah, if that is it, then it will be a simple repair, and I'll have the computer in the next day or so. I wouldn't have been able to buy the parts myself for several days. But I am worried about why it doesn't see hard drives if it's auto shutting down due to CPU.
I'm sure by now that something was damaged after the repeated reboots and troubleshooting...Hopefully not though!
Probably, hahaha.
Luckily my friend let me borrow his laptop, so I can at least do internet stuff.
