I guess I didn't get up early today. Nor did I get to do my hair cut yet. I got up this morning and turned on my computer to check my e-mail.
*click*
Hmm..
*click* *click*
Hmm..
I checked the power. It was on, I checked the socket, it worked. I checked the power cable, it was fine.
*click*
It's days like these.. So now my computer is open on the floor and everything seems fine. I think there may be a problem with the power source, but I've got to open up another computer to test out that theory. If that's not the problem, then I'm pretty much in the dark.
On the brighter side, computer prices ARE pretty low right now..

Hey, so this is the last day of the millennium. Who would've thunk? Is everyone prepared for Armageddon? I've got to get my hair cut now, I might as well look good when the world blows up, but I looked around and NVM's got some comments about choosing names for your kids. I've always wondered what I wanted to call my kids. I keep trying to think up some unique names that don't sound stupid. It's pretty hard, especially since some cooler unique/rare names have been taken already.
You know, you'd think that getting a job would get your parents off your back, but no, they'll always find something else to nag about. Oi vey.
..and I feel fine.

This is annoying. (Not having a computer that is.) Well, it's not like I don't have a computer to work with. I can use girl's in the interim, but I really should get down to the bottom of this problem.
But as I said before, this is an ideal time to go and upgrade my system. I guess it's time to do some research huh?

I rushed on down to Logic to grab myself a new power supply before the place closed. I decided to grab a 300W source just in case I needed any extra power in the near future. After I took out the old power source, I took a quick peek at the specs and noticed that it was rated at 200W! 200W? What a rip! I thought they said it was a 250W source.
Anyway, I threw in the new power supply and hit the switch. It turned on! Power started coursing through the computer's components again! *cheers* I quickly reattached all of my peripherals to the computer and started it up. It began to power up and.. funny.. how come nothing's coming up on the screen? All of the cables were attached. *jiggles cables*
Hmm, don't tell me. It was more than just the power supply.. *horrified look* Aw naw!
*sigh*
Well, I guess this problem will take a little longer to fix. I had hoped to get by with just a new power supply but I think I might need a bit more than that. I'm not sure what could've wrecked the system though. It was perfectly fine last night. I didn't hear any funny noises or smell any strange odours. The only reason I can think of it going kaput so quickly is from a power surge.
That would suck. I thought my power bar prevented those from happening. Further, if the surge came through the ethernet cable, then how come the rest of my network is still up and running? What a mess! I'm very tempted to by an UPS now.
Oh well, it's time for me to go. I'll go mope somewhere else..

I think I'm going to have to accept the outcome. I think my motherboard's gone to the circuit board heaven in the sky. I don't think it's under waranty anymore and I'm not sure where I can find another BH6 that someone's willing to part with. Ah well, I really have to get going now. What a waste.
