Okay a long one.
Well I was taking a shower came out and the cat was all over my keyboard.
I had my speakers on and music also,about 20 applications were on.
So keyboard was froze and it was whining and humming like nothing I have heard before.
Well I thought a reboot would fix it NOT.
So it came back and said "check Video Cable" okay the video card fried,well went and bought one installed same thing.
So returned the card
Okay well now I figure that either the MOBO is fried or CPU so a new board is here MSI this time.
Old one is Asus M2A-VM AMD Motherboard - AMD 690G, Socket AM2, Audio, Video, DVI, PCI Express, Gigabit LAN, USB 2.0, Serial ATA, RAID
New board is a MSI K9N6PGM2-V Motherboard - NVIDIA GeForce 6100, Socket AM2, MicroATX, Audio, Video, PCI Express, 10/100 Ethernet LAN, USB 2.0, Serial ATA, RAID
Okay so I have ordered a new CPU also to have in case.
AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Processor ADX6000CZBOX - 3.0GHz, 2MB Cache, 1000MHz (2000 MT/s), Windsor, Dual-Core, Retail, Socket AM2, Processor with Fan which is the same except the cache is higher.
Okay so If I try the New CPU first will if the board is fried burn the New CPU?
PS is a Thermatake 500 about 9 months old as is the system.
22Inch LCD video XFX 3 gigs Corsair ram no ECC
On board sound 2 500 gig Seagate HD Sata
Ethernet card D-Link
Keyboard 512 logitech wireless
