Not sure if any of you guys are still here and still active/lurking but I just want to say a big thanks to this forum! Names like Celgorm, Thelis, Setishock, and others I can't possibly remember after all these years >_>

1 - Take it off
2 - Wouldn't pillow's have a little bit of static electricity?

I haven't been here since I was . . . . 14? Anyway, I'm back as I need help with this decision. I'm sitting here with a Phenom II X4 955 Deneb Stock freq. of 3.2 Ghz overclocked on...
Figured it out.
I was talking to my neighbor who works with computers and he told me a few things I could try -
One is that he never believed in power supply testers
Two to try booting without RAM because even without the RAM it should give a POST beep.
Three was to reset my Bios because it...
So . . . . haven't came to these forums in a long time but as the thread title says . . . My desktop won't POST at all.
I've been putting it into Sleep Mode for months instead of actually turning it off if that has anything to do with it. The diagnostics that I have completely already are as...

By delete do you mean going into the whole file system and just highlighting everything and deleting?
I'm dual booting with Win 7 RC but I didn't know that the options stay in your Boot Manager when you get rid of one OS . . . I would try doing a complete format of the drive that the OS was on...
There's been a problem with AIM for me for quite some time. The SN I've had for over 4 years suddenly won't display any of my buddies. It labels them as all logged off so I'm just dealing with it now >.>
What error are you getting when you try to get onto AIM? Like, can't connect etc?

There not earbuds, but most good sound quality headphones aren't. I have...
Alright, I truly hope it isn't a HDD failure because that would completely suck. I have all my music on my 250Gb HDD but this is my 1TB drive that my Win 7 partition is on and I have quite a lot of crap on that. Thankfully I believe I installed my WoW game on my B-drive
Anyway, I have the...
