    Thunderstorm kills PC during SETI@Home Run (obv. government did it)

    Yeah, just tried that. I got a different error code that I overlooked earlier, "Monitor or graphics card error" with no video card in. Odds a very good now it's the video card, I would guess.

    Thunderstorm kills PC during SETI@Home Run (obv. government did it)

    I think some progress has been made, I heard a beep. But first, I put in a new Q9550 and the only thing that changed was that it no longer shut off after a bit of idling. In fact after a period of time the "PHASE LED' row of LEDs would turn off. Nothing else was different. So I took...

    Thunderstorm kills PC during SETI@Home Run (obv. government did it)

    Just got back with another new PSU, now I've tried it with a new PSU and new mobo AT THE SAME TIME. Same results. I have previously tried: : 0 ram sticks in : no video card in : all HDDs unplugged (from mb and psu) : using a different power cable, in a different surge protector, plugged...

    Thunderstorm kills PC during SETI@Home Run (obv. government did it)

    I've pulled out the ram before, hoping for a memory error beep but didn't receive anything (means it screws up before that post check, I'm guessing). I have tried the system without the video card in, since the video card isn't required to achieve post.

    Thunderstorm kills PC during SETI@Home Run (obv. government did it)

    Yes, my previous mobo DFI Blood-Iron had on-board beeps, and I'd get one every time I power on. According to the manual for the gigabyte, it too uses beeps.. of course I don't know if it's on-board audio or not. I guess I'll pick up a psu again and see if it's a psu+mobo issue. After that I'm...

    Thunderstorm kills PC during SETI@Home Run (obv. government did it)

    Well, update: Bought new PSU, swapped, same results. Returned PSU convinced it was the mobo. Bought new mobo, swapped, same* results. Maybe it's the PSU and the mobo... and who knows what else. *The new mobo (gigabyte EP45-UD3P) gives no beeps like before, although after 20 seconds or...

    Thunderstorm kills PC during SETI@Home Run (obv. government did it)

    That's a good point. I guess I'll pick up a PSU and test it out. I think if it ends up going beyond the PSU, I may just go ahead and put something new together, it's been more than 18 months, anyway.

    Thunderstorm kills PC during SETI@Home Run (obv. government did it)

    Thanks for your advice, I will take more consideration when getting surge protectors from now on. As for resetting the CMOS jumper, would taking the battery out for ~10m suffice, because I gave that a shot already. I don't think the video card is relevant (although it could be fried, but that...

    Thunderstorm kills PC during SETI@Home Run (obv. government did it)

    I need some help from anyone who has any ideas as to what my PC's problem could be. The power went out for a few seconds during a thunderstorm and my PC didn't come back on normally afterwards. I was running SETI@Home on my PC during the thunderstorm, using up 100% of my CPU (CPU=55C, cores...

    can't access WebServer inside LAN

    looks like modifying the hosts file worked after all. i think the router page must have been stuck in my cache the first time i tried it.

    can't access WebServer inside LAN

    That doesn't help when I have web apps pointing to the external ip.

    can't access WebServer inside LAN

    I tried that, but unfortunately the web apps I create use my IP (i.e. to display an image on a web page it wants to pull the image from my server) and any instance of that fails. So while I can get to my server, the web apps I'm serving can't do much once I'm there.

    "I'm happy with my current S775 setup" club

    I'm not happy with my setup. I will not be happy until I can find a new prime two, maybe three times an hour, fold like a million points a minute, and ray trace at 60fps.

    can't access WebServer inside LAN

    I just got a NetGear WNR2000 router and am having trouble with what I think some people call 'router loopback'. Outside of the lan I can access my web server using my IP, but while inside the lan it redirects me to my router settings page when trying to navigate to my IP. This is bad because I...
