My Computer

I hate it so much. Works perfectly fine for the majority of the time I had it. Let's examine my computer's problems in more detail.

1. Video card fries.

2. Motherboard stops working.

3. Power supply is being a piece of crap, for example, not booting up correctly or even all the time.

4. Moniter gets a big blocky thing in the middle of the screen, so 3/4th of the time I'm using it, I can't see a third of the screen.

6. I get a new video card. New video card has graphical problems. For example, textures, such as Warcraft ones, stretch across the entire screen.

7. I get a new motherboard, it's slow as heck.

8. I get a new power supply, actually works.

9. I get a new video card, has a few problems, but it's an actual improvement over the last, (the one that was working, but got randomly fried).

10. New moniter, gets a green translucent blocky thing in the middle of the screen, I can see, but it's pretty annoying.

11. Sound doesn't work correctly anymore.


Computers are the most annoying thing on the face of the Earth, :evil:

But mcdonalds is always hiring.


I tried repairing different components in mine, and after graphic card, network card, video, and power supply, I finally got a new mobo and cpu, ram. Now it runs great. Only problem is i have no monitor, so I use my laptop which isnt the greatest for multitasking. The lappy is generally good, but cant play high def movies too well.

Don't don't click me, just build. That way you know what you have, what you need, and you can build a better one for cheaper than a 2 year out of date store purchased one.

That's what mine is; custom built by myself.

Anyways, atm, I'm using a huge CRT that looks terrible, but works. It seems like my computer hates LCDs.

Maybe thats the problem. Try buying instead of building.

You see, I do that, and it ends up being a trillion dollars, and running like crap.
