Computer Crash!
Hello fellow Camaro enthusiasts, I'm back online after a fatal computer crash. The motherboard had an epic fail and I just now got our old HP Pavilion up and running after messing with it all weekend.
$400 to repair/replace 1.5 yr old tower, so for now I'm in the the dark ages of computering. Just glad to be able to peck around on here for now and hopefully get a new one soon. $400 for a tower that could have been used for mods. Oh well, s**t happens. Hope all had a glorious Easter!!!! |

Yes. They say the power supply and hard drive are good. Any suggestions on getting it up and running cheaper? I haven't done anything other than a diagnostic test yet and haven't committed to anything. It's an hp.

Cheap prices on components. What is your current (broken) configuration? Depending on what processor/ram type you have and what you want to replace it with I could point you in the right direction for a cheap setup. It's super easy to do.
