Help.

Published on June 29, 2009 in stuff. 3 Comments Tags: PC Problems.

Ok, so I’m having some little trouble on my PC right now. Everytime i try to play games, I hear a loud whirring sound on my desktop and when the game’s about to start, the PC suddenly shuts down. What I’m afraid of is it might take a serious blow on the entire system.

I have a generic 500w power supply and here’s the specs of my PC:

Processor:AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 5000+
Mobo:EMX-ANF7050-iCafe
Video Card:Inno3d 8600GT 1gb
Hard disks:80gb WD HD
40gb Samsung HD

This happens when I try to play games like CoH, Call of Duty etc. But as far as browsing and doing other stuff on my PC, they’re all fine. So again, I ask for your help guys. Thanks. :no1:

Lesson Learned….

After all the anticipation for the first item I’ve ordered online, I didn’t notice that I’m about to make my wait longer and its been 5 days already, but still, no luck, my Tales of Valor’s still not in my arms. T_T

Anyway, I’ve learned a lesson on buying stuff online. Here are a few:

READ. Its always best to browse the entire e-shop or else, suffer the consequences later (like what happened to me.) I’m not saying that I’ve been scammed or anything, but thanks for my excitement mode, now I’m down waiting further.
(Related on the 1st item), before going to a shop, its best to check for the site’s reviews by other customers. You’ll have an idea if the site’s reliable. I can say that the site where I bought my item’s quite reliable. :no1:
Lastly, if the item’s here in your country, just buy it here! Perhaps this is the dumbest mistake I’ve done so far. Yeah… I wish I just stepped out of the house, went to the mall and bought my dvd.

On online radios…

Ok I guess I have no choice but to hear them later… Anyway, just to keep myself busy and to forget what I’ve read a while ago, I’ve managed to revert the custom search results on a its default stage. I’ll get my hands dirty next time.

Anyway, while doing that stuff, I’ve stumbled upon my old playlist at windows media player

and found out that I’ve managed to save a couple of radio stations, well, NU 107’s

The Super video one of them and I’m thankful that listening while doing stuff somehow lowered my stress level.

Anyway, most likely you have a windows media player

just open these links and you’re all set. Btw you have to be online. :no1:

Blitzing the Post Office…

Its been 5 days already and still I wasn’t able to get my purchased DVD, I couldn’t wait anymore and definitely I have to stop at the QC Cental Post Office tomorrow to check if my Tales of Valor have arrived. But I have to get ready for the worst, since I was able to read some disturbing posts on the net regarding the possible alligators lurking around the Post Office, well since they’re basically stationed at Pasay City and not @ QC, I guess that’s one point to lessen my worries… But still I must be ready, I should have all my ID’s to verify myself as the receiver of that package.

I’ll bring the news by tomorrow, I hope I’ll get my package tomorrow, and as of the moment I’m really tired right now and a few hours of sleep will definitely help. Thanks a lot to the weather too since its not that hot. I hope I can sleep as soon as I turn off my PC.

(Tales of Valor… Tales of Valor… Tales of Valor… Tales of Valor… zzzz….)

Just when I thought that I could get a HD enclosure and a combo drive for my desktop, the worst happened. Last Saturday, while I’m playing @ Relic Online (Company of Heroes), I was on the brink of winning against a good player when my monitor suddenly… died. >_<

Of course I can still hear the Allied units dying thanks to the fortified positions that my vehicles and units are enjoying that time. But without the power of sight, I’m virtually blind and will not be able to win the match at all. So I decided to close the program. And yeah, the monitor is dead.

To fulfill my addiction to the game, I was able to open the monitor itself and found out that there’s a piece inside the crap that is flickering when the switch is turned on. But I’m no good at electronics. By that time I decided to place back the monitor and for about an hour, I feel like an addict who’s been out of hits and I feel like I’m already drooling off. >_<

(Ganito gusto kong gawin sa monitor ko nung mga oras na un.)

Anyway, I thought that maybe I can use the old TV downstairs and use it for a while. Thanks to the old cables that I got from my video card, it worked! The sad part was, since our TV’s kinda old, I can hardly read any texts from the desktop and I have to use a magnifier to read the thing clearly. >_<

But I didn’t go empty handed, somehow I was able to enjoy DBZ 2 from Snes emulator and I was also able to play H.A.W.X., on top of that, my mom favored the temporary relocation of my PC downstairs since she can watch whatever movie she pleases to watch.

Speaking of watching movies, we’re able to dry our eyes with, Angels n Demons, Drag Me To Hell, Prison Break season 4, Ip Man (I watched it again w/ her), and some episodes from Death Note and Dragon Ball.

Anyway, I guess that’s it for today, I gotta go back at work. A few hours more and I’ll be off to Bicol, with my relatives from mother’s side. :no1:

Till then.

I need a new monitor, the question is, should I buy a new monitor and I won’t be ablt to buy new stuff for my PC, or will it be the other way around?Skins hd
