Aaaand the other shoe has dropped... · 11:37am Oct 13th, 2015
My other computer has stopped working. I have nothing to write on at home. Thank god I have wifi at home still access the internet through my Vita (which is what I am typing this on) and 3DS, but unless i get a big influx of money this month to buy a brand new computer, I am going to have to walk into town to the library (a mile walk) every day to get anything done...
I think I can get a new computer next month but I may be out of luck for October...
Again crap luck :( , if your on the go a lot a chepo Chromebook wouldn't be that bad. So it just wont turn on now either huh?
3466670 It turned on once and froze. I reset it and it crashed. I tried to reset it again and it made two beeps and refused to boot up at all. Now it is not even beeping, it just will not boot up.
3466689 pull the power from the back and hold in the power button on the front for around 30 seconds (to drain the capacitors) then reattach the plug and try to start it and write down how many beeps and if they are short or long.
Did you happen to cross any black cats lately... And walk right into a mirror and stumble under a ladder?
3466703 When it first stopped working there was a short beep and a long beep. Now? No beeps.

EDIT: WHEN OPENING THE PC MAKE SURE TO TOUCH THE PSU (POWER SUPPLY) ONCE BEFORE TOUCHING ANYTHING INSIDE TO GROUND YOUR SELF ON THE CASE FIRST.
pull power then open the side panel and you need to reach under your power cables (im sure its a mess in there) and push down on the white ends of each RAM stick on each side of the stick it will push them out then pull up ward on them and take all of them out then while they are out plug the pc in (you can leave the panel off) and start it, it should make some noise report back if it can create noise in this state (should basically scream at you).
If it does NOT make noise then you need to unplug it wait 30 seconds and then take out the battery (labeled CR2032) in the middle area of motherboard that is laying flat (use a flat head screw driver to push back the little thing holding it in and it will spring outward and up) for about 30 minutes. this will clear the CMOS and BIOS settings. then put it back in and try to create the noise again.

3466758 I am scared to do anything with a computer's internsls, as my hands shake badly, especially when I am nervous.
3466782 don't worry you cant damage RAM very easily, as long as you ground yourself by touching bare metal in the case before touching it you should be okay. Just make sure its unplugged first. PC's can take punishment today. Due pay attention the way the ram (label on it) faces when you remove it though so it can go back in the same way later.
