I go out with a friend of mine and enjoy some fine Indian food, hit up Gameworks and end it early cause I have to work today (there now...)
I get home and see that the power had gone out about 3 hours ago and that my PC was down.
I try to boot it up and nothing -- nadda -- zip -- zilch
everything is powered up but it won't post boot
I freak out thinking maybe my 8800GTX got fried in the midst (and maybe it did...) :frown:
but I checked out another PCI-e video card I have that is working and nothing on the video -- that coupled with the fact that USB ports are not getting power makes me think its the mobo (this is a first for me)
I tried both of my power supplies separately and nothing also (moving to just use that 600w)
Any thought on it not being the mobo fried would be great
-- also suggestions on a new mobo to buy -- I'm thinking about hitting up Fry's B&M after work to see what I can get as either a new permanent solution or a hold over for new Tech
