Wierd computer issue.

[TheGame]

Thanks for the tips guys. I think even though its working I'm going to invest in a new laptop next friday. I don't have cable, and video games don't do it for me like they used to. Can't really risk having my best entertainment source going out lol. I'll have about $700 to spend on one (after taxes), might have to hit up walmart or something. :x

To Happydude... It could have been dust, but I don't know, nothing changed from the last 3 attempts to turn it on, except for the 3rd time it worked randomly. And my computer actually just hit its 2nd birthday as of today (what were the odds?). And I think its likely that it got fried when the power came back on, since I left it plugged in like an idiot, it was working just fine when the power went out lol.

And to strangler, I'll likely get one of those regulators a bit after getting my new laptop. I guess the only good though, is that it is randomly working now. Hopefully it holds out one more week. :P
