EDIT: Tried removing a disc drive, startup repair ran normally and now I'm at my desktop. I don't know anymore.
Power issues?

I've thought of that 1001 times, I have no definitive means of confirming it. Could be viruses, could be the hard drive being retarded, could be the motherboard. I don't know. I want to replace all of them. I will probably format my hard drive and reinstall win7. If that doesn't fix it, it's rebuild time.
EDIT: Everything's running smoothly for the time being. Could a single disc drive that I never used actually drive my power consumption too high?
EDIT: CRASHED AGAIN. Fuck everything about this computer.

I don't even know, but I'm done with this damn computer. The fix Hek hooked me up with was great since I know my graphics cards are alive, but it's time to put this thing to rest. I feel like Victor Frankenstein.
As I was typing this, the Windows boot manager was trying to run. Now it says "An unexpected I/O error has occurred". This morning it had a "disc read error" trying to boot from the hard drive. I'm done.

Get the diag disc from your HDD manufacturer, run that in long-test/burn-in mode.
Get a multimeter, monitor your 12v+ lines. I am still getting a bad vibe from your PSU as it's some weird brand.

I have a 750w Silverstone PSU, get out here on the train and come borrow it, I'm free this Saturday
Pretty sure I'm terrible at getting to first base and having it be legit, un-awkward, and not rushed. Maybe I'm just not old and wise enough to be good dating material lol :-\
my right ear is ringing
still
A dude that wouldn't listen to my advice, fucked up an industrial PC today. Which cost all 8 of us a whole day's work.
But...
Got sidetracked from studying trying to learn how to use templates on my wiki, then gave up and copied a bunch from the real wiki, then they outputted garbage so I started installing extensions until it stopped outputting garbage, now I am so damn close to doing the one thing I wanted but for whatever reason it isn't centering the damn thing with a damn box around it like it should considering it does that using the exact same damn code from wiki.
I could die and no one would even notice I was gone.

Right, that's why to ever talk to anyone it's always me who has to start the conversation.
Not to mention my karma's on pace to be worse than Karth and Tardle combined.
And that's only BRBU, nowhere close to what RL is.
Karma doesn't mean anything. It just represents what other people happened to think about at one instant in time, and everyone knows that what everyone else thinks doesn't matter.
Only what I think matters. Since I just gave you a +1, that means you're cool.
But in all seriousness, if you want people to talk to you, then you need to be confident and talk to them. If you talk to someone enough and they like you, then they'll start initiating conversations eventually. It's all about confidence.
Nitrous, calm down.
You know what Karma is? Numbers on a screen. Karma is a joke. There's no meaning to it. Try and get your mindset on that.
You're likely the fourth or fifth person that is taking Karma entirely too seriously to the point where you are looking for excuses to explain why we of BRB, U hate you, which couldn't be less true. This forum, this community, is a family, a dysfunctional one, but a family. No one here hates on others with serious intent, and those who do usually get "cool-down sessions" aka Three-Day Bans.
No one here hates you.
And it'd be a shame to see a member leave when he's well-known in our small community.

Who cares about karma? Nine times outta ten, people just press a button blindly.
The amount of times I've gave a + to Didzo for example, is staggering.
Come on champ, let's all be cool buds here. 8)
OK
I'll admit I was a tad bit drunk as fuck. But still, you guys own, the people I know IRL, not so much.
Sure karma's just a number, but it's a little disheartening when on average I have the most negative instants, more so than tardle.
But that's still nothing compared to rl. If I talk to people more, they think I'm weird or a creep or some shit. Even Funbucks, who was my best friend for as long as I can fucking remember, wouldn't even start conversations with me. Every time we hung out, it was always me who had to ask. What the hell am I doing wrong? If anyone cared enough to get to know me, they'd realize I'm just a normal guy, but no one gives a shit. Girls don't talk to me ever, guys just make fun of me (even my friends in high school who did nothing but play video games). I think I know a grand total of 3 or 4 people who talk to me and are actually friends with me, and only one of them hangs out with me on a regular basis. I just feel like such a fucking failure. Hell, the way I act on the internet is nothing what I am irl. I'm usually nice to everyone and as far as I can remember, I've never hated on anyone unless they've hated on me first. I just don't know anymore... :'(
