Arrgghh, cant get it up and running.


Ga-Z77X-UD3H MB; flashing Mbios & Bbios lights, wont load or display any other errors

Fuckers. (my error most likely, hate it when I don't get shit right the first time!)

I once put together a computer and tried to turn it on, and the screen was blank. I pulled and replaced the power supply, checked the MB, etc, etc, only to find out that in the end I'd simply forgot to plug the monitor into the video card...

You should have gone to Best Buy.

Yeah Kuyuk, this really is your fault. I bet you didn't even try taking the side of the case off.

You didn't build that computer by yourself.

I would assume you wired it incorrectly.

disassembled this computer; put this power supply and hooked up this HD to that MB, RAM & Graphics card...

it started up and tried to load windows, but kept rebooting instead of loading windows...


Seems the power supply isnt sufficient or something...
And the HD/OS may not be up to snuff..

Sorry all I read was "I should have bought a prebuilt computer."

that's no way to enjoy building one with my son!


The other computer I built had absolutely no issues :(

Sure it is. You two can take turns cutting the tape off the box. You can show him how to connect the power cord to the computer and how to properly plug it in to a UPS. Think of the amazement on his face as you push the power button and watch something like "HP" (they still make computers right?) blaze across the screen as it boots up.

Fuck that; I'd rather break my computer than buy an HP.

Try replacing your RAM

You might want to drill some holes in it.

Have you Googled the problem for answers?

Everyone knows the way to put speed holes in a computer is with a pickaxe. A drill? Come on, man.

Excellent. But now I inexplicably have the Mr. Plow song stuck in my head.
