My PC just died

who needs a case :P

I saw a PC that was all hanging from the roof like a new borns mobile above their cot. it was awesome in a junk yard style.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooo!
We need your adhoc projects MikeDX!
I'd send you one of my crappy P3s if I could...
unfortunetly all of my funds are going to the Wii aswell.

I need the PSU, I'll be buggered if I'm changing that over in the case when a PSU is £15 and a new case is £25....

It'll have to wait I suppose, no rush :)

I feel sorry for you, MikeDX.
I wish I could help :(...

With PSU's, you can often use the sniff test to tell if it is burnt out. Sniff the vents on the psu. If it smells like burnt rubber, jackpot. If not, your mobo is bad. Motherboards are cheap these days. Don't waste your time on a new case. PSU's that come stock with cases are often weak crap. Go with an Antec or a Thermaltake PSU. They are built to last.

I think it's more of a case f having the time to pull it all apart. At some point (possibly later tonight) I'll strip the whole thing to barebones and start with literally psu and motherboard... if that doesnt work, It'll be end of the month before I can get a new MB..

well

it was the psu as suggested.

now I'm £30 down on my wii savings :(

I'm glad you found the problem,you could always do some man whorring to make up that money.
I considering it for my Wii...
That's a lot of sluttin for a PS3 though

yea i was gonna say either the psu or it could have been the actual switch on the tower...

anyways cheers on getting it up and running :D

ps3 can go **** itself. i didnt have a ps2 and i wont have a ps3.

still.. £30 :( that sucked.
