OMG my Powerbox caught fire today!

Post by Chainsaw man » Sat Jan 10, 2009 12:52 am

Hey guys. You would not belive what happend today. There I was typing on the forums, I decide to check out the Live chat, and I started talking to John. we were not too deep in conversation, and I decided to see if I could get the OG Alpha running on my machine. My machine has problems already, I once caught the CPU over heating and litteraly smoking, the plastic bits around it that hold it in place were melted and a bit burnt. Today, the Smell of smoke did not warn me of what was to come. The Comp literaly bursts into flames!!!

I chucked the thing out side ripping the printer off the shelf and hurrl the Computer out side.
It was so WTF!I rushed to the kitchen upstairs and grambed the Fire Extinguisher and quickly put it out. Once the mess was cleand up, I look it to bits.

I found out the Power box had caught alight some how. I couldent belive it. I was happy to use an old powerbox I found in the Inorganic rubbish years back was still stored at my fathers and replaced the burnt out junk. it had a few problems on start up, but after a bit of kiwi engineuity I got the thing working like before.

Although I fully agree, I think that would make the game so freaking hot, the game would be unusable.

MORE boobies? There's nudity in this game to begin with?

Tsk, tsk, Jeff.

More as in, more than zero.

Although I'd more quickly agree with Jeff than with Skofo on this part.

See? More as in, more than zero.
