Re: Hard Drive Failure
Update...
Well the problem turned out to be a PSU problem
So I have a new 400 watt powersupply and case coming.... Today....
So I will still be slow on the game turn arounds... And some games are running on the download game... open up turn... and then hit end turn and then upload it ... 233 is a bad speed for these games.
To all the players and PBW Game Hosts... Thank you so much for your understanding in these troubled times...
On a side note... I discovered this thing called a back yard... Very cool...

If you're blowing up all the new computers, maybe you should consider the power you're putting in...
Old computers are tough as nails, but you might need a power conditioner or UPS to smooth things out for the new ones.
Perhaps see if there's a signal analyser around that you can use on the wall outlets...

Tesco, I must order you to head back inside right now. Back yards are dangerous players that us gaming geeks just don't understand
Stand back guys, there's nothing to see here

Re: Hard Drive Failure
sj the replacement was a plant floor system that had a lovely life in an area called body and white. Within 50 metres of this computer were about 100 arc welding robots, heavy fork lift traffic and about 1000 smokers... This system was in this location for about 4 years...
The power is fine... as i am running a stero system / recording studio in the same area with no problems...
