Today at 1:55PM my time, my computer blew up. It wasn't a big KA-BOOM! But it was more like a "bang!". I backed up everything onto this PC before everything happened so I'm lucky

. I hope this one doesn't blow up :-/

Exploding things can be power supply unit or motherboard's capacitors most times. Was it one of these ?

Did you, by any chance flip a switch at the back of your computer?

Well, this hard disk is about dead (I STILL don't have a new one, I was supposed to get one last weekend but...), so I'll either get a new hard disk or an entirely new tower. Not quite as impressive as blowing up a computer, but it's still quite effective to screw it over.

My HD randomly boils up to 50 degrees and higher, so you can expect me to post a "OMG, MY HD EXPLODED!" thread soon

....

Oh, and Rest In Pieces, Adb's PC.
