My Mobo broke down

[Freeze]

Hey folks,

This is a huge face palm for me. When installing a custom CPU cooler I accidentally scratched a part of my motherboard with the metal and hit a wire going from the RAM memory to the Processor unit which followed in my RAM sockets not functioning anymore. I just ordered a new mobo which will be delivered Friday so I'll probably be back fully Friday night or Saturday (Cod4 and mumble wise).

Just a heads up,

Freez

Thanks for the heads up Freez. Hope you will get it fixed soon.

Maaaan, that's a bummer. I accidentally scratched a mobo while changing a cooler... but it eventually died a slow and painful death 6 months later lol

Haha, yeah I'll make sure to be more careful from now on.

Did you take the board out of the PC? Most people do that.

I would've but my case is VERY tight, I would have to remove all the other stuff to even see all of the motherboard, another reason why I made this mistake.

So now you have to take everything out anyways.
