Ok, so today I discovered that a component on my mobo was fried.
I discovered this after looking at the inside of my computer when I had some trouble with Windows and thought that my hard drives were broken/corrupted. Well I already ran chkdsk on both of them, checked the Ram for problems with Memtest86 so I thought well ill have a look at the motherboard just to be sure 1 more time. And I noticed that a component on the mobo was fried, the computer is still working and i actually did replace the PSU because I thought the PSU fried but when in realty it was the motherboard.
So my question is if a fried component on the mobo (don't ask me what it's called because i don't know) can cause problems that make files that were just downloaded seem as corrupted?
