right , looks like i`m moving soon , taking my old pc with me and hope to get back onto the net full time....library is ok for free usage but it blocks all the porn sites ... aanyone got any old PC bits they don`t want or wanta sell...
Bacically my pc won`t start up , tried a new power pack and it started the fan for a brief second and then died and now nothing , so why would the power pack fail instantly ??? is it the motherboard blowing it or what or help /ideas anyone ??

right mate from sounds could b a few things but without looking unsure, if it boots up sometime but then other time it does not its your hard drive. if it does not boot up at all could b your mothboard or your graphics card.
are you getting any lights on the front of the case or is it making any noises?

speed is the best rush i have ever had!!!

Mark, if you can't get any help from someone closer, if you can post it to me I'll see what we can do with it. We have a workshop full of PC's in various states of disrepair.

Can you believe we support our office in Paris this way. The office is not big enough to have a full time IT bod there and we haven't found a local contracter as yet.

you need to check the voltage supply of the power supply. There are a few different and there is one on there for mA start up. Make sure your power supply can supply this for long enough to start up. This is the most common problem when the fans start then stop right away.
