Megiddo:
Turns out I'll be computerless for the next week... My Mac has a problem with the cdrom drive so I'm sending it off for repair, and I'm shipping my desktop to college (don't trust those monkeys doing baggage with the airlines).

Adieu!

Megiddo:
Status update (my roommate is generously letting me use his laptop for this post :)):
Got my desktop today, dead on arrival. Trying to get FedEx to pay up for the insurance I coughed up for before shipping it. Laptop is "still in repair", no ETA.

jay209015:
you back in the states?

JamminR:
Yeah. He's back at LeTourneau University.

Megiddo, if you haven't already, open the case, reinsert the memory, slotted cards(video/audio/etc), and make sure all the power connectors are snug.
My main rig didn't work after the move. It ended up just being a vibrated loose memory stick.

     - This is a high possibility, but how did the computer react when you received it? Did it turn on at all, if so: how far did it go, did it beep(if so how many times); Most likely if it did turn on, but beeped constantly at a stead rate, and never continues to the OS, it would be the RAM. If it doesn't turn on, but you get power to the motherboard, but the fans stay off, it's the cpu. Other then that, I'd need to know more.
