Oops PC almost died

71.3k Rjenteissussy  one month ago

I kindly wanna share this to y'all that my PC almost died on the spot fr lmao. (Don't even comment "no one asked")

So heres the tini-tiny story:

I got home 1:00pm after school it was a damn haggard day. A lot, i mean LOT of school activities on 1st quarter. I see my crush there which is a relief, aaaand politely ask me that do i have any water left? So i give it to her and her friends.

Wait this is off-topic fr?

Anyways

After that, I plugged the socket on my PC and press the power button. It's on but why its monitor and keyboard wasn't active? I'm so damn desperate if my parents think why the PC wasn't working, and YouTube tutorials are a lifesaver.

I remove the PC lid to open and sneak-a-peak inside on it. I remove the lithium battery (mid-sized watch battery) first and activated the PC in a second, deactivated it and returned the lithium battery 15 minutes. Decided to try if it works, but still does not work.

Another thing the tutorial say's if it doesn't work is to remove both rams and clean thier yellow-ish connector from the motherboard. Aaaaand it works like a charm, final fixes are the BIOS up-to-date systems. And i share this to my parents as well (they are impressed).

I nearly get a heart attack loosing my one beloved potato pc. Thankfully its easy to fix the issue

    @Rjenteissussy that's because you can open up yours
    I unscrewed every screw I could find on the bottom and there probably was glue holding it together
