So I cleaned out the entire comp as best as I could with a combination
of cotton swabs, paper towel, towel, and breath. Then I went ahead and
removed Sound Card, some other card or modem, unplugged CD writtable,
and reseated the video card and one of the RAM sticks.
So I powered the bloody thing, and it actually turned on pretty quick,
as opposed to not outputting anything at all. It showed some wrong
reading of my CPU (like 630, when the right one should be 950) and RAM
(some 756MB instead of 1G), but actually LET me into the blasted desktop
with astounding speed. Showed a lotta Found New Hardware crap, but I
canceled all that. Ran a DX Diag, CPU was wrong still, but fixed RAM
reading.
THEN I BLOODY HEELLLLLLLL LET SHUT IT DOWN BECAUZE I WAS WORRIED ABOUT
THE *%% CPU READING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AND IT NEVER LET ME INTO
THE DESKTOP AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN AGAIN AGAIn AGain again! Only way it
could get to the bloody desktop was by turning L Caches off and logging
into Safe Mode, which was back to the same acursed problem I had before.
Did a lotta RAM switching and it just wasn't right, every time I had to
clear CMOS after crashing for it to boot again. Anyways, I installed
some basic video/sound drivers and could boot into NOrmal windows, but
it was so tediously slow that I concluded it must be my CPU that's
faulty. How the heck am I supposed to play Warcraft ever agian...I was
hoping to do some nice PvP action on it...
