Hello,
I just moved to a new place and hooked up my home built computer that I last upgraded a year ago to an existing router. I noticed that it had some trouble connecting to some sites on the first try, but it seemed okay if I reloaded or quit and opened a new browser.
I was testing the connection, so I watched some Hulu then played a game of L4D2. Fine for about five minutes, then complete crash, no signal to monitor.
I'm wondering how I can tell, short of removing the CPU fan, if I've fried something. Case fans spin, PHASE LED all lit up, but keyboard, mouse, monitor and Ethernet light all inactive. GPU fan spins. CPU fan not spinning.
Its warmer than usual in the new place, what's most likely to have blown? Suggestions?
