Win 8
i5 3330
GTX 650 Ti Boost
Rosewill The Hive 650 watt PSU
crappy Foxconn 2ada mobo with H61 chipset that came with the HP desktop I have been upgrading
temps are always ok
I plugged in my printer usb plug into a rear usb port. Instantly I lost video. I had sound for about 10s and then it started becoming distorted and then it stopped. Putting the pc to sleep and out again did not fix the problem.
I turned off the pc, switched the psu to off and took the cord out. Then I hit the power button to discharge any remaining electricity. Then I reversed that and turned the pc on. I have video and sound now and everything appears ok. I even plugged the printer into a different rear usb port and it is working ok.
Should I be worried? I just recently purchased and installed that video card so to have it crap out like that is worrying. On the other hand I'm hoping that it turned off as a "fail-safe" and no real damage was done.
What do you guys think? I didn't take any benchmarks to compare before and after.. Should I be worried or should I just take this as I warning. The pc is in a room with a carpet (although the pc is not on the carpet) and I was wearing "fuzzy" clothing at the time.
Thanks.
