| 844788 | 2010-02-18 00:45:00 | ...just an update to this problem... New hd blew when plugged in (and a few others as well blew instantly when connected) New psu(s) didn't change anything. So still no idea what is causing hard drives to blow. Gulp And don't know if I can salvage the graphics card or sound card, memory etc... Am ready to throw the whole thing away now as 2 different repair shops dont know the cause...and I sure don't have any further ideas... Yell out if anyone needs a brand new psu! (or 2) |

| 844794 | 2010-02-18 22:49:00 | You say the HDD blew, do you know which part of it exactly? Can you post a photo? | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 844795 | 2010-02-18 22:53:00 | You say the HDD blew, do you know which part of it exactly? Can you post a photo? Probably more like, won't spin up after pluggin in. We tested one with another pc prior, then again after using in this pc, which wouldn't fire up again afterwards... |
