Had to throw out me Epox, sound went on it and so did the network card.
Thought it was easier to just buy a new mobo.
I though i would try pc chips, if they were crap i would of sent it back, but its great, easier then most epox boards i have bought.
But people have different opinions on different hardware.
Now, if you are buying a HDD don't but a MAXTOR, absolute crap.
My dads 160gb started clicking and broke.
Now my 80gb is clicking, its only the one with windows and games, but still. At least it's not my 160gb WesterDigital (great make)

Ha ha, anyone that buys a pc chips motherboard is a nutter.

Isnt there a saying about it being better to be a master of something rather than a jack of all trades, which i what i am, i can fix most things, i only have a problem with electronics.
Really i should be moving away from my pc, ive finally start going to college in septemeber and i wanted to be read up before i started my psychology a-level but this place seems to take up way to much of my time for me to read.
I'm going to have to take a break at some point soon.

One of them in the chieftec matrix case, i bought it from ebuyer, code 57000 i also bought a window pannel for it, 4 UV lights, 4UV reactent fans and some other bits n' bobs.
Put it this way seems as well, you're a w*nke*.
I am crap at maths
crap at science
Not too bad at english
But IT, i got an A in.
I have built 7 computers, I don't "Claim" i know about computers, i do know about them. Part or my dads job is to teach student about hardware and build computers, also managing servers.
I have lost count of how many he has built now, i kinda just used to watch him, then help him, now i just do my own.
You dont need to be good at spelling or anything to build a computer.

Yes it happens a 5 past 3 every morning and has led to some of the most unbelievable unintentional(i presume) spamming.
