SLAYER

Thanks for the move. I'm actually looking at the intel 2.8e intstead of the 2.8c and its only $189, and I think im going to get that Asus motherboard. and they say that the 2.8e can over clock to 3.6! Thanks for all the help so far keep it coming ...I have one 512 and I plan on getting another for about $100 Im the SLAYER you may have played cs with till my comp got fried, and Im new to the community as of a month ago

Ok for those of you who like shopping the internet, I'm going to build a replacement computer for the one that got zapped by lightning. I think I'm going to have about 600 to 800 dollars to work with from the insurance company. All I need is a tower, I have everything else. The computer will be mostly used for gaming, and therefore needs to be l33t. feel free to shop for computer components for me. I've been looking around www.newegg.com also I already have -radeon 9600 pro -512 of ram but still want 512 more need everything else Any advise/help would be much appreciated -SLAYER

I'm on my dads...which is 6 years old and unable to play CS....

Thanks for all the help and concern guys. An insurance guy is coming to our house soon and hopefully everything will work out ok

When I plug the computer into the wall, then the green light comes on. when I push the power button...NOTHING happens. no noise, no lights...nothing....

Upon further investigation, I have concluded that the surge came though the cable/phone lines. Both of our phone lines went dead and this morning my dad went out side to find the box where the lines connected to the house open with all the parts/wires blown out or burnt. Also one or more of the router ports is fried and doesnt work while other ports do. Oh, and the tv in my room is fried and needs to be replaced After calling the necessary people we found out that my computer will be covered under home-owners insurance and can be replaced along with my tv. Now I have to wait and see how much of my computer they will cover and if they factor in depriciation. If they give me the money I payed for the original, I can get myself a bada$$ new comp. This might just turn out alright.......

My mom and I were just talking about it and we think it may have come through the cable line. That and our phones dont work now either....today sucks.....

So I was sitting at my computer today trying to help my mom pay for something on Ebay and a bolt of lightning hit our house/wires. The shock went through my surge protector and into my computer, out of my computer through my mouse and shocked the $@!& out of me. I'm ok (it hurt like hell) but my comp wont turn on now. My moniter and everything else seems to work fine. The only thing that I can see on my comp is a green light on the motherboard (good or bad?) I called dell to see what they had to say about it and talked for 20 mins with a lady who barely spoke english and new less than me about computers. But after some troubleshooting with unplugging certain things she said that the processor was bad, but im not sure how accurate that is. I would obviously like help of any kind, thank you

that is a good idea....because wasting time on the internet makes me happy

That man has springs for legs, I wonder what is his vertical is?
