This is so horrible, it has to be pinned as a news topic. It has to!
My graphics card burnt out. Literally. The wires to the GFX Card fan are charred. Somehow, some stuff got in the bearing and gummed it up. Something orange - I have no clue what it is.Which means: I can't use surfaces which means: I can't use gamemaker 6.1 which means: I can't work on Pawned or anything else!Which is so horrible - I'll have to shell out a hundred bucks or so to get a new one! Say…… anyone got a paypal account that I can hack into?…Of course, my GFX card was 3 years old, 128 mB…So yeah, the wires are charred so bad one broke. I burned my finger touching it.Everything else is okay though. I hope.This is dumb. My monitor breaks, so I have to buy a new 1 - 150$US on sale. Then my network adapter busts, 50$US on sale. And now my GFX card crisps - XX?$US (sale, hopefully)This is getting to be annoying. Whats next, my processor?
I guess this means I'll be playing a lot of Tiberian Sun and Renegade and RA2 until I get a new GFX card…
Ouch.
what do you do to your PC? O.o
oh, and get this one: Linky!looks like he busts them on purpose…
Maybe you should just get a new computer… Yuck… I hope it gets fixed soon. I know what it is like to not be able to work on any games (I had a virus attack, and had to reset my OS…).
flashback - that looks great!
Unfortunately, I live in Texas, it's too far a trip to Canada.It's an online deal, silly.
Hehe. At least some static electricity didn't fry your mobo. >_>
*smacks head* duh - I saw "Pick up your order in store!" and saw that it was in Canada or something. I'll check it out more.
WAIT! I found one that you can pick up in the US bestbuy.
LinkyXD Guess what…
Thats almost exactly the same thing I had. Only mine was a 5200.I'm definitely glad of these links, flashback. I've got to go do something, but I'll search for more later, I am indebted to j00!
