oh man oh jeez

yeah so my computer busted like it might be getting messages from the moon but i doubt that

pretty much i was playing a game and my processor got stuck in an infinite loop and sputtered some static looking plaid all over my screen and then went to some blue screen telling me it got stuck in an infinite loop
so think ok thats strange and restart the computer open up the game and the computer crashes again
at this point im sure its coming from the game so i restart the computer and dont open the game this time and the computer runs fine
this happened like two days ago
so today im playing this different game thats also in 3d and at one point it just stops so im like ok so i wait a bit because my computers pretty slow with games anyway but then it did the plaid thing and im like oh man oh man
like i played this other 3d game and it did the plaid thing once but it recovered so i thought it might be okay
but it wasnt fixing itself so i went ahead and tried to restart the computer again
but this time when it restarted it was still plaid
so i restarted it again and its still plaid
so i restarted it in safe mode and its still plaid like the command prompt is plaid bro

bottom line is that im on this tiny terrible macbook now because the pc supercomputer is down but the upside is that since the processor and/or graphics card are probably going to be replaced since its the root of the problem

i might take a picture of the plaid static but until then if you want to get an idea think of entire screen of missingno

has anyone else had wacky computer problems like this

Yeah, at one point my computer started rebooting at random and now it doesn't boot at all, so I have to use a netbook with no disk drives. For PC gaming I'm kinda dead.

Re: oh man oh jeez

Whenever I play any fullscreen game, after a few minutes, my computer suddenly shuts off (from overheating, I assume). Now when every I play a game like that, I have to put my computer on a floor fan.

Nope. Nothing I didn't cause anyway, which is surprising because it's an Acer. (They aren’t the best computers in the world.  tongue )
