A strange HD crashing....

I wouldn't bother arguing with Shmokes, due to his inability to grasp the concept of being told and knowing when to quit. I do feel sorry for him though, and do try and give him credit for something he outputs. He might even be a big yahoo :laugh2: in the courtroom (if he ever gets a chance get in there) but in an internet forum he just doesn't have the ability to control himself. It is like dealing with an angry old man.
He must have his good days and bad days like we all do I guess. Personally I would go nuts if I was stuck in the house playing on the Nintendoh all day. They are hiring here and he has all the best qualities for the job.
So just agree with him, and humour him the best you can. Be warned it is an uphill climb. ::)
I was trying to find a 75W or a 150W AT PSU just to get additional power for a Tower build. They are becoming very hard to find.
A 250 ATX for a Bartop maybe, but for a home PC I would ditch it. 400W PSUs are so cheap and quiet.

such is the internet :dunno
I once explained a videogame glitch by how a game does collision detection and this was the cause of the glitch and this fool basically said my explanation was all ---That which is odiferous and causeth plants to grow--- that's not how it is, and you shouldn't listen to it bla bla bla.
I'm like what the hell are you talking about Mr. expert, but if you know, then by all means.
He says, you think your so damn smart and you're feeding these people lies to make them think you're smart but your really not and this is all ---That which is odiferous and causeth plants to grow--- rabble rabble ---smurfette--- ---smurfette---...
So I'm like okay actually from what I'm seeing the ---That which is odiferous and causeth plants to grow--- is comments from your side. I'm also not seeing this absolutely correct information nugget you have stored in your head.
for 5 DAYS ... no reply
Yeah...that's what I thought.
/soapbox
Take everything you read on the internet with a grain of salt I suppose.
Don't forget, peoples attitudes don't translate well with typed information...it's all how you read it in your head. If you read it like a ---smurfette--- you sound like a ---smurfette---, you read the same thing in a pleasant tone, it's pleasant . :cheers:

I agree with you 100% but Shmokes has been trying to get up my a-hole for nearly 4 years. I'm all for playful banter, but the guy cannot differentiate banter and formal discussion.
Maybe I should ask Saint to add some "adult discussion warning flags" in the smilies. ::)

--- Quote from: lilshawn on July 25, 2012, 10:29:51 am ---a 250 watt power supply hasn't been an option for purchase for quite some time now. most manufaturers have moved to 500 and larger for their full sizes supplies. therefore we can determine
a:) the supply is several years old. stuff don't last like it used to.
b:) with 3 harddrives, the main board, and cd rom drive, is loaded probably to the maximum.
c:) caps are shot in it.
given A + B = C, replace the power supply.
--- End quote ---
You forgot D:) his power supply works fine. A faulty power supply cannot, PHYSICALLY CANNOT cause the problem described. Even if A), B), and C) in your hypothetical all turned out to be true, even if he truly should just get a power supply for . . . ---smurfing--- . . . the fun of it, cos everyone with 250 watt supplies should just automatically go out and ---smurfing--- replace them even if the power supply has never caused any problem whatsoever (like, for example, this case) . . . the power supply could not cause the problem described in the OP. It's physically ---smurfing--- impossible. Not unlikely . . . IMPOSSIBLE. So, while y'all have a little circle jerk about what an unreasonable ---uvula--- I am, how about actually addressing how I am wrong. I mean, I give you some slack lilshawn, cos you're apparently just some guy who likes computers. But this is supposedly Ark's profession. He has no idea how to do his own job.

im curious to the specs of the rest of the pc. it might not even require a high wattage. their is laptops more powerful than the systems people use in their cabs. and they only use a 90w power supply. i still say its the adapter i got two of em here.
its the power adapter. replace it and i bet the issue will go way. if it dont its the HD it self, replace it. those are the only steps you need to do those are the only ones required to get your answer. dont know if you got it fixed or not yet but there it is. i have no certs or degree. just real world experience from the years of doing computer repair. anyone else remember BBS and baud modems haha
