down for a long time
« on: December 22, 2015, 10:43:22 PM »
Well, I am down for a long bit.
MY PC died this afternoon and I really cant afford to replace it.

Thought maybe it was power supply. I replaced that with 2 different ones (1 was original that cae in PC that I replaced right away to handle Vid Card, the other was one from an XP machine I have.) Went back to original Vid Card (because of Pwr Supply.)

No go. I think the main board is fried....

Sucks. No xtra cash right now. Gotta save so its gonna be a bit....booo

MechWarrior on ..I know its good cause  when I got this PC ,before I even got it home I had the
power supply replace with a corsair power supply that's been running it all these years . Its out
of an HP , I don't know if that will work for you , if it does ,let me know. I will pay for the shipping,
no charge for  the power supply . you want it ,its yours , just let me know

thanx Mini but its not the power supply.Its the main board (motherboard) and CPU, what i need is a can of smoke so
i can put the smoke that leaked out back in, lol.

seriously, the motherboard and cpu bit the dust. to run my good vid card i need about 500 to 600 watts pwr supply as well.

HDD, DVDRW,and Mem are all salvageable. (assuming new motherboard can use the mem speed)

overall really bad timing for it to die.

well, no problem .
Its all parts out of older PC I used for MechWarrior , I know the mother board is still good
I think its an AMD chip set with 6 gigs of DDR3  in it . its not much but if it will get you up and
running you can have that as well.. I don't know ... shit anything to get vettie back up and running  ;)
