[QUOTE=brutalmoose;39744952]They plugged it in to some... volt meter or something, I dunno. But it did power on. Unplugged practically everything and still nothing. I'm almost certain it's the PSU, but I'm going to take it in and make sure before I drop more money. They do free diagnostics, I just wasn't willing to leave it with them because he was pretty certain it was the motherboard. And no, it's not geeksquad. It's actually a shop with a really high rating... I really have no other options than to just hand it over to them. I just hope I get it back in time to get my next video out this weekend. Got something pretty cool planned for the video after it.[/QUOTE] I'm guessing that whenever you power it on the PSU fan and nothing else spins? Either way yeah it's probably the PSU.

[QUOTE=brutalmoose;39745036]When I say nothing, I mean nothing. Nothing happens.[/QUOTE] Your PSU is really probably dead, if you replaced the motherboard and everything... leave the thing at some other shop? :v: No idea why they'd tell you it was the motherboard.
I literally love the constant use of Banjo Kazooie/Tooie songs, they were my absolute favourite games from my childhood, and they still hold extreme sentimental value for me. Funny after all this time I still know them all off by heart :v:

[editline]28th February 2013[/editline] Or have my dad look at it. Whenever I have computer troubles, it fixes itself as he steps into the room. Computers [I]fear[/I] him, man.
[QUOTE=Chaotic Lord;39747860]Or have my dad look at it. Whenever I have computer troubles, it fixes itself as he steps into the room. Computers [I]fear[/I] him, man.[/QUOTE] HOLY SHIT It's the same way with my dad. It's like he's got some kind of Computer-Fixing Force Field.
[QUOTE=Mysterious;39747962]HOLY SHIT It's the same way with my dad. It's like he's got some kind of Computer-Fixing Force Field.[/QUOTE] The only time that he hasn't been able to fix my computer magically was that one time my hard drive caught fire for a few seconds...
Broken USB port was grounding out the entire thing, apparently. Just had to unplug it and everything worked. WOW.
Nothing good ever comes from USB ports
ah the classic one small thing was causing the entire problem..er...problem.
When USB ports become redundant and we can just plug the devices straight into bodily orifices and interface through electric currents through fingertips I'll be a happy man.
[QUOTE=brutalmoose;39748942]Broken USB port was grounding out the entire thing, apparently. Just had to unplug it and everything worked. WOW.[/QUOTE] My mothers PC had one peculiar USB-port that broke every single other USB-port if you plugged something into it. It only started working again if you turned the PC off, pulled off the power-cord and then pulled out the thing in the broken USB-port. You won't believe how many fantastic phone-calls I went through with her explaining what was happening to her PC. She knows NOTHING about computers. I deeply regret the day I fixed a relatives PC when I was 11. I've been the computer-"expert" of my family ever since and it's been utter pain. PAIN I TELL YOU!
I watched some of these videos a while back, enjoyed them but for some reason never came back. Decided to subscribe this time around, sent some videos to my friends, they seem to be enjoying them too, keep it up.
So brutalmoose does that mean you have two motherboard?
[QUOTE=Ithon;39751441]So brutalmoose does that mean you have two motherboard?[/QUOTE] I have two motherboards. Kids in school used to make fun of me because of it, telling me it was "weird" and "unnatural" because they only had one motherboard. But I loved them and they loved me, so I didn't care! <3 [sp]lesbian parents joke[/sp]

USB is like, a very shitty standard the connectors are relatively fragile, not really the cheapest thing to manufacture in the world and it's really really easy to plug it in the wrong way and break the port

While not the same, everybody always made fun of me, telling me I couldn't run Crysis like that.

All the plastic around it is melted and it doesn't work anymore.
I think you played it before but if you want to take it for a spin again. I got a new SpaceStation 13 server which is whitelisted, i can get you on if you want :v:
[QUOTE=zombojoe;39752496]I remember once one of my front USB ports caught fire with the thumb drive in it.

It took me and my dad two weeks to figure that one out.
Few years ago I took apart a friends computer because it would stutter in games for half a second every 5 seconds. Turns out he left the plastic film on in between the processor and the heatsink..... How it even worked in the first place is beyond me.

[QUOTE=brutalmoose;39755221] Is that that game that I had no idea what I was doing when I played it?[/QUOTE] More than likely.
