You can die blogging?

And here my imagination flew away with the whole thing and events like a guy getting (somehow) electrocuted while pressing his keyboard, somebody dying of starvation while blogging or the computer exploding in someone's face were on my mind...

Guess reality is less interesting and more grim.

I want this song to play whenever I enter a room.

I was using my computer 2 days ago, and the screen froze up, it glitched badly, then stopped working. I restarted it, and it happened again a few hours later. I turned it on yesterday, and it crashed. It gave out 3 beeps, and the screen wouldn't start and kept giving me "no signal". It's in the shop..I'll kill myself if my video card fried, meaning that I'll have to dish out 200$ for a new, equivalent one. Fuck my life. I hate using laptops, which is what 'm stuck doing right now. IT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE FUCKING MICROSOFT OFFICE, WTF

I've had a hard drive crash two times, and it was nothing like that. The CPU was up and running, as well as the card (the fans were spinning, but I don't know). It can be a CPU, motherboard, or graphics card problem. The card is the most expensive part in my rig by far. Thing is, if it's a CPU problem, I'm gonna have to change my board as well because they're only selling the "i" series now, and my board only suits a quad, which is what I have now. This sucks major donkey testicles.

the last time something like that happened to me I had to buy everything new... it was an old pc, it wasn't compatible with anyting, not even itself

Considering the situation it's probably the video card. I don't think the CPU would affect the screen.

There may be some manual explaining what 3 beeps mean for your motherboard. Generally, this means a RAM issue, but it's mother board dependent.

I would suggest you open your computer and reinstall (with cleaning) the VC and RAM you currently have in case it's just a bad contact issue.
You should also hit yourself on the head for going to a "shop". Unless it was free, which I doubt, but seriously dude, shop? You're a diablo fan you should know how to fix computer problems by now...

Equinox is always right about everything.

What next?

You're so silly.

Had a class today about Elemental Particles. Last class of the course Nucleus, Atom and Molecule Physics and it was just an avalanche of random particles and properties physicists pulled out of their ass to explain why stuff happens.

"Hey, there's this new reaction we've never seen before! Let's explain it with giving some particles Strangeness. This one has +1, this one has -1. See? Everything works now!"

And then it doesn't. And they hypothesize something new. And it works. And then it doesn't... It's funny when you think about it, but it gets a bit repetitive when you have about 5-7 of such revelations in 2 hours. I stopped paying real attention to what he said and just waited until he reached quarks, the current building blocks of matter.

Also, he ended the lecture with a quote which I'm pulling right out of context: "Physicists have never observed colour."

It was a card problem, so I bought a GT240 for 160$. The CPU also needed a new fan, so that's 10$. I payed 200$ in total. I got it home, and it wasn't working. It was the motherboard. Now I also have to pay 60$. My luck is just phenomenal.

Luck? lol

Well it wasn't like I was fucking my video card and the motherboard found out and they got into a deadly brawl.

The probability of multiple parts flying at the same time is pretty low, so chances are some specific part broke and you got shafted on the rest. In fact, I'm skeptical if anything was broken at all.

they caught anti-matter. O.O
