Moved computer slightly to the left, now its gone and buggered itself.

Deadly Dead Dude

Evening.

 

Last week, I moved my PC slightly to accommodate a cable. I was in the middle of a game, so I made sure to be EXTREMELY careful. But, unfortunately the computer froze. I restart, go to play a game, only to find out that not only do I get 2 fps in all my games, as opposed to a solid 50-60 beforehand, but windows no longer picks up my TV when I click on the speaker icon.

Any help is much appreciated.

Sounds like either the video card, a power cable or one of the memory slots isn't fully and completely secured.  Check the mounting and secureness of everything, with the PSU power cable completely unplugged first.  I've seen some people fail to properly snap in the memory, thinking they would break the slot, and then the system didn't work or crashed all the time.  System memory and video card connectors (and other PCIE cards) tend to be the biggest culprit here, but sometimes SATA / drive power cables can come loose as well so check all your connections.

 

A system should never freeze just by barely moving the case around.

Sounds like me ever since I joined the 30s club. 

 

Try to re-plug/reconnect your GPU and RAM.
