Really not happy - at all.
SirPeale:
Yesterday, the parts I've been assembling into my cab start randomly crashing at random times. Then, it stopped responding at all.
I pulled everything out of the case, and found that the motherboard had a bent corner. I have no idea how that happened, but it cut vital traces.
Then I noticed the char on the power supply header. I looked at the plug on the PS, and it was black and melty.
I have no idea how this could have happened, but I suspect that, while my wife was on a cleaning binge, she may have thrown some stuff on/in the machine when she threw it in a closet.
It wasn't big hardware, but it was all I had. Now I'll have to buy more. Dammit!

As Bart Simpson would say "I didn't do it ".
Lilwolf:
That SUCKS!
But it DOES gives you an excuse to get a new motherboard that can handle some of the newer games ;D

sukz to be YOU! ;D lol. j/k I feel for ya man! :'( check out www.pricewatch. com and you should be able to find a good deal on there. As always, check with the vendor to make sure what kind of return policy they have and if you can help it, always use a major credit card for online purchases as if the vendor screws yo some how, then you have the power of visa or mastercharge to investigate and get your money back. Its saved me MORE then once! :) Just some helpful hints.
