I was being stupid and plugged in my 6 pin to molex connector while my PC was ON. My PC shut off and now it won't turn back on. I think I killed something because it made a click sound. I have an MSI Z97 PC MATE and CX430M. Please help, I am freaking out.

Make a jumper and test if your PSU is spinning. Like.. Keep 100 yards away from my PC.

I need S340. But more Define S'ish

lol that was easy xD

 

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016
