  1. My pc broke down


    When i was loading up my computer this morning it kept freezing. I tried multiple things to restart, none worked. I hard rebooted ny pc and tried to factory reset it. It was reseting fine but 11% in it stopped responding. I couldnt do anything than my power ran out.


    Now when i load my pc it takes 8mins and sends me to an offset account called administrator without desktop.exe and explorer.exe.

    i now am only able to get it to the f2 and f12 screens and cant reboot it.

    What can i do to fix it without having to buy another copy of windows or sending it to be fixed.

    :)

  2. PC Build Steps

    Ok just because I like steps i am going to create some steps. Please give me the stamp of approval/disapproval
    • Install system in case
      • Remember to connect SSD and optical to same SATA ports on motherboard
    • Turn on PC
    • setup HDD
    • run blend test in prime95 for 30-60 min
      • run realtemp at the same time
    • While in Prime95 test
      • if CPU goes above 70c in RealTemp, I have a leaky CPU
      • if my system locks up or blue screens, there is an instability in the system somewhere
      • if my system does not lock up or blue screen, my CPU is not damaged and I am in the clear!
    What do you guys think??
