Stand on one leg while I whistle the theme tune to Dukes of Hazard while wearing my Daisy Dukes. Not sure why.

Nothing to see here - move along.

1. Leave the side panel open while testing.

2. Always saying: "hm I should have done an external test :l "

3. Panicking because the computer won't start. Then realise that you haven't plugged in the power button. Then panic more because it still won't start. And then realise that you I didn't turn the psu on yet.

Check all the cables to make sure that nothing will hit the fans and make sure that everything is connected before I turn it on. Always do a out of the box test to make sure it works before you put it in the case (didn't do that because I wanted my rig up and running quickly) :D. Also left the side panel open to see if the fans are spinning properly and make sure that my system works before I close it.

Rub the CPU across my cheeks (face cheeks you dirty minded forum-ites), agh new CPU feel, the non pin side I'm not crazy, just a bit insane :lol: .

I roll with sigs off so I have no idea what you're advertising.

 

This is NOT the signature you are looking for.

Keep another device (preferably another pc)close by so that if something goes wrong you can look up a fix.
