I just opened the case and cleaned the inside and now my PC is running again. Perhaps it was the amount of crap inside (especially in the cooling fan) was the reason.

But it could be that I'll lose the rig and will be without a PC... Very exciting, haha *sigh*

Yes, this belongs in computers and internet. FYI, we have a pretty good set of sub-forums to delineate what topic belongs where, I suggest looking over them thoroughly before starting your next thread. ;)

Well, one has to be careful while cleaning inside of the computer cases. It can affect some of the sensitive inside parts. Once i cleaned my machine (which was running amazinly fine for 2+ years) with a brush softly and after i was done, the computer was refusing to even start. No solution whatsoever. Finally when i gave it to repair, i was told that one of the mobo's connection is broken :confused: That was so shocking and confusing.

So be careful while cleaning your machine :p
