Thank god there is another mechanical oriented person on here! I've fixed a few Machines myself (although not car's) and it's quite fun :3

No Jack some people are just able to fix things and know nothing about them so where were from we call them do-ers and people who know thinkers...even thought I helped him and i dont even think he gave me any credit.

I was going to post some more things but when I got to the house of the person I fixed the stuff up for he already sold them so it was a heartbreaker all that hard work and I dont even get any credit for it.

So I have no picture to post at all till spring even thought I posted that I would be putting more up soon.

I can't fix anything that can't be hooked up to the internet. I build my own computers, and know how to spot a hardware problem a mile away. You're computer not turning on? It's most likely that the power supply is dead. The computer running a little to hot? Thermal paste for your CPU, check the system fan, cpu fan, gpu fan.

I admire your ability to fix vehicles, I would definitely trade my computer expertise for that any day.

No dude my computer did a blow-up as in BOOM after being on fire so I dont think it can be fixed. Dont get me wrong I am not the best with computers but I am sure its beyond repair.

I hate when people use the term, "Blown up" when talking about their computer. Computers can't really catch on fire, and they certainly can't blow up. It's a bunch of metal and plastic, the worst that could happen is that a couple parts suffer burn damage, and even melt. They can be replaced, and most of the other stuff can be salvaged. Once I thought one of my computers "Caught on fire" but really, the CPU fan stopped spinning and the Cpu melted through my motherboard due to the heat.

Most of the computer was fine, and I just had to replace the motherboard and CPU. Computers are usually NEVER beyond repair. Computer parts, however? Not so much. The only time I was able to save an individual computer part was when I fixed the heatsink and fan of my Videocard (pulled back the faceplate to give the fan more room to spin, while bending the heatsink edges to let the heat escape).

Like I was saying computers are beyond me but it did make a pop noise so I am just going to give it to a friend who will parts it out and teach me what i did wrong and what not.

I am a dumb sailor dude if its not want the navy wanted me to know its past my abilities anymore so machines other than computers I can atleast do a little work on.

Pop sounds like either one of your fans flew off or got stuck, or your power supply blew up, which by the way, is the only computer part that rightfully can be described to do so. I'd have your friend test all of your other computer parts, because if your Power Supply dies like that, it can fry your Motherboard. I've had a Power Supply break, and kill both my Motherboard AND my CPU.

If anything, it's most likely not "What you did wrong" but rather, "What was wrong with the parts." Sometimes, you just can't avoid a computer part failing on you.

Okay thanks and the sad part was I was in the middle of backup up some of my stuff incase that would happen. Just thought that was funny.

You'd be suprised. Older coputers actually can cause some rather dangerous legitimate explosions. So can superomputers.
