I think the problem was that I used a pci-e cable from another power supply.

Sorry I ment cpu cables. And in the quoted post it was 6 pin off course.

But how did I do it? I don't want to buy another expensive board and fry that too.

Today I was building my new pc with New: GA-Z97N-WIFI (motherboard) 1 stick 8GB HyperX Fury 1600MHz 4670K with stock cooler Samsung EVO 250GB BitFenix Prodigy Old: Corsair HX750w GTX 460 or GTX 560 Ti When I pushed the power button I think I heard a little click noise while smelling something burned, did I just fry my motherboard? I have tried the psu with another computer and it works fine, but when I try it with my new computer the is nothing. I also noticed that the PSU have an 8pin 12v connector while my mini-itx board only 4pin. The other motherboard I tested on the other hand has 8 (normal sized atx). What I may have done wrong: - Plugged a 6 pin power cable which splits into two 6 pins into the GPU may have caused some overpowering? - I had a molex power cable from the HX750 to a CD drive while having a data transfer cable from the CD drive to an other pc (because my new mini-itx didn't have that connector, and I also just realised that I should have done the opposite, I needed data to my new pc but power from an old one). Was the motherboard probably dead on arrival or did I kill it myself? Or is the fault somewhere else.

I haven't heard any news on this recently, does anyone here know anything? I like the Dell design much more than the LG 34", so if I were to buy one of these expensive monitors I also want it to look good.

I've tried to get into bios, but it doesn't work, just ignores when I'm pushing the buttons it says or other. Maybe I could try another OS drive tomorrow to check.

Opened it and checked all the cables. Rebooted and says warning your previous overclocking failed. Interesting, will write more once I have more info. More info: I listed f1 or f2 as option, neither worked, it just froze. Rebooted (turned off very quickly), same stuff came up.

Hi. My younger brother's desktop PC was dropped during transportation, I don't know exactly how. It turned on and he was able to use it, but everything was extremely slow, a youtube video lagged, updating/refreshing in chrome took 20 sec, the percent bar in LOL was extremely slow, and everything else just seemed wrong. Suddenly the computer turned itself off and it now sort of tries to reboot but turns off after half a second and just repeats off and on very quickly. The OS is on a SSD. I was thinking maybe either the power supply because of the latest problem I wrote. Maybe the Motherboard, or the processor. Any ideas?

As far as I understand there is a static IP on all the computers because I don't use programs such as hotspotshield? I'm sure this is a simple problem because the NAS popped up under "network->computer" now on my main machine probably because of a PC restart. I tried restarting another computer, nothing happened.

A week ago I assigned my NAS a letter (mapping network drive), and today I tried to do it with other computers in the house. It worked out fine with the first one, but the other computers I didn't find my NAS as a computer under network so I couldn't assign any letter to it. The PC I first did it with didn't have it either when I checked today, but the NAS is listed under media devices on all the computers. Basically, I need to map my NAS to different computers but I don't find it so I can't do it. How do I fix this?

I think your answer did the trick. Thanks!

Only files from the hard drives connected to my PC har moved to the recycle bin? Anyways, I've checked many times, they didn't go there.

I have a Netgear ReadyNAS 104 4-bay which I installed two 3TB Red's in on raid-1. This I run on Win 7. I added the NAS as a letter to my computer under "Network Location". When I delete a file from this location it disappears, but the space does not restore itself. I can't seem to find where the files went, and I didn't find sufficient information elsewhere. Any ideas?
