Motherboard got Fried

[Froberg]

Yeah..

Got two bits on the mobo that are yellowed and weird-looking. Checked the power supply in my old case and that still works.

I figure it's down to the mobo in this instance.

When I turn on the computer it's like it doesn't draw the power it should, and all diodes just blink like mad.

I've got a mate who owns a net café, so I'm going there today to pick up an extra mobo he had lying around.

It's hella annoying though, I wanted to get my Blood Bowl on today.

I am laughing so hard right now :p No TW2 for you either :evil:

Nah, but then I've got an ATI card and performance on them is atrocious.

I'm just going to wait for the first patch of the game now.. damnit.

What one did you get? Mines awesome...

Right, well, it's a smaller board - but it's gotten good reviews. It's an ASUS P5N-E.

Unfortunately. It did not solve my problems. The exact same error occured, so I am starting to think CPU.

I'm considering just getting a Core i7 2600K and be done with it. Really hadn't calculated on buying a new computer though.

Got a C2D E6400 dirt cheap so I can check for CPU defects.
