Why did you dissasemble your molex's? Adding new colorful ends or some such thing?

too bad the PSU didn't get fried instead. sucks big time.

Lets put it this way. I was lucky that my room is close to the bathroom. I nearly sh!t my pants when i saw the video card not showing ntil I realized I didnt have any monitor installed. The good news is that the WD was already being RMA'ed for it couldnt hold Data. Its like russian roulette, every reboot antother program. So eh, and i had all my good stuff on my other HD so im kinda happy............Wait i hope i didnt fry that too brb.

Added colorful ends and had to fit the sleeves/heatshrink over. I have to admit even though i fvcked up on the wiring i did a beautiful job of hiding wires and heatshrinking.

Not atm. I have it ALL ripped apart because my first thing was I (still on morphine) thought there was fire so i removed all my stuff. Whats a miracle is that yesterday I watched my computer arc TWICE in 30 minutes and not one thing got damaged. And today i walked away maybe out 30$ because of RMA's.

No they were fun to watch actually. The good part is that my replacement HD is supposed to arrive Saturday, so this gives me time to finish my Case mod.

sleeving under the influence...SUI


never a good idea...

It's kind of expensive, but some on-line shops sell a form of sleeving where you wrap it around the cable instead of sleeving it. It sticks together like Velcro, I think. I did a horrible job when I tried sleeving my computer, and wound up nearly electrocuting myself as one of the molexs fell off and started sparking together in the case. I was two inches from touching the case metal. A lot of the metal connectors in the molexs got ruined from my poor job, so I had to push the wires into the connectors everytime I plugged something in, else the wise the component wouldn't get power.
