Wolfsblood July 18, 2005 Share Wolfsblood Member July 18, 2005 (edited) Always one for good timing, my mobo has apparently died. The Computer crashed while playing Guild Wars, and when I went to re-boot, it just came up to the ASUS A8n-SLi Deluxe splash screen. Worse than that is the fact that I may have had a hand in killing it. I had taken the side window off to clean it out, and when I re-connected my ccfl's, I pluged them into the wrong pass-through connector. Turns out, they were being powered by a mobo fan connector. Now the race to re-build the system begins. Any other ideas as to why it now doesn't boot? System itself isn't the problem, psu is solid, and it's been cruising along fine since built it in January.... New mobo ordered, should be here tuesday... Might have to miss the night out at TP on thursday depending on how the re-build goes...... Edited July 18, 2005 by Wolfsblood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the one Fatty was auctioning off in the trailer from last year, but mine are blacklight, not "cherry red cold cathode lamps, man", Edited July 18, 2005 by Wolfsblood Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
