Yes - another one - a broken 4.3GB Seagate HDD. It just died in front of me very horribly. The indicator of HDD is always lit, and it's not working anymore....

Just a quick update on what I've lost over the past few months.

1. Intel P4 i845 MSI mobo
2. SiS P4 mobo, with a VIA VT2833 southbridge (i think)
3. Three sticks of 128 DDR266 RAM
4. Two Maxtor 20Gb hdds
5. One Seagate 13Gb hdd
6. One Radeon 9600Pro (ouch)
7. One Geforce FX5600 (not so ouch)
8. An iCute 450W PSU

Just thought the thread deserved a bump.

Hm... u guys mentioned many broken hardwares here... I am lazy to talk every single hardware that I lost so I will just list down the COMPUTERS that crashed in my house:

Laptops:
1. NEC latop (forgot the model, but I think it is a 1992 newest model): forgot the operation system, it died when i was 10

. Surprisingly the battery still works!
2. ECS A928 (dunno what the heck it is, never heard of the brand b4): it is a Pentium 4 machine... nothing else that I remembered.
It kinda totally stop functioning, no even the LED works, a few months ago. B4 that it had a wierd sound to it and smtimes smells like burnt compnent, but anyway it is usable for 3 months like that and then it died.

Desktops:
1. Acer Desktop (forgot the model as well): Bought in 1996, died in 1998. Short-circuited due to lightning strike. Clearly fried up very bad as when on a stormy night with plenty of lightning, the power tripped and BILLOWS of smoke rose from the CPU and monitor... my Original Red Alert 2 disc 2 died with it that night.

2. Acer Desktop (once again I forgot the model): Bought right after the one above died... worked on a Win98, Pentium II 800megahertz, killed by my lil bother. My brother short circuited it, still remains a mystery till now.
3. Acer Desktop (ok, this is a recent death so I stil remember the model

) Veriton 5500G: It runs on Windows ME, pentium 4 1.6ghz. Cannot boot up, the circuits are fine and the power supply is still working. I suspect the hard disk and processor are dead.

As you can see, I use mainly Acer computers. Hopefully my Acer Aspire 1682WLMi will last till I graduate.
