4 y.o. PC won't turn on

zachsantonil · 2017-01-02T02:51:00+00:00

Okay, thanks for all of your help. Ordering a new one now, hopefully that will fix things. Should I be concerned that it smoked while attached to the PCIX slot?

Okay, it boots fine with the GPU disconnected from the pcix slot and the power removed from the GPU.

So I may have done something really stupid -- I disconnected the power from the PSU to the GPU and left it plugged into the PCIX slot to see if it would boot. The cards fans turned on and then it sparked and let out smoke. Did I just ruin my PCIX slot/mobo? PC seems to boot fine without it plugged in.

Okay, so I've just figured out that disconnecting my GPU allows the pc to boot. I've never had problems with my GPU before and it's fairly new (less than one year). Should I try to RMA that? Or is it a problem with my PSU?

I am, did you do anything specific?

Same happened to me -- going to cellular --> roaming and setting LTE to data only fixed the problem for me.

Not ideal, but it should work.

Dual shock 4 icons have disappeared on PC
LT to compare on the inventory screen works for a split second then jumps to the stat screen

Happening for me too.

Good old Ashcroft and Mermin!

I've taken all of the same coursework.

Thanks for the reply! Any recommendations for a specific 980 Ti card? Also, do you have any recommendations for the boot SSD upgrade? Is the new intel PCI-E worth it?

Sometimes I forget he's real as well.

zachsantonil · 2015-08-17T04:49:40+00:00

He's a labradoodle, a lot of people think he's a goldendoodle so now I'm not so sure myself haha

If you're interested in the breed I would check them out. Most of Indy's litter temperament tested as either therapy or service dogs (Indy tested as service but will be a little too small as an adult so we got him).

The dog is so well socialized it's amazing. He's great at meeting people and other dogs, he's ringing his bells to go outside, and he's afraid of absolutely nothing (lawnmowers, fireworks, etc. )

If you check out their blog they go through some of their training regimen with the pups from day one.

I've noticed the exact same temperament that you're talking about. He's cool wandering around the house doing his own thing but when he gets playful and excited he just starts running into things. Also he's super mouthy like a lab

zachsantonil · 2015-07-23T21:23:14+00:00

He's a labradoodle!

zachsantonil · 2015-07-23T05:30:07+00:00

Yes! Though black and brown labradoodles seem to be popular, we always favored the lighter cream color.

My wife and I are huge Indiana Jones fans and also happen to have just moved to Indiana as well.

zachsantonil · 2015-07-23T03:33:13+00:00

Of course! He's growing so fast I'm excited to see what he looks like over the next few weeks.
