I got home last night and tried to switch on my PC, and it didn't want to boot up. So I restarted it, and continued trying to get it to boot for an hour, but I eventually gave up. My PC has been giving me problems recently (not booting up), so this was not completely unexpected. However, I hadn't expected it to happen so soon.
I even tried to boot up with a LiveCD, to chech that it wasn't my hard drive that was the problem (which I doubted, since the hard drive itself is fairly new), but the LiveCD didn't work either. So, as far as I can see, it looks like my motherboard has packed up.
So today I'll be getting quotes for components, and I'll see how much the "damage" is. I'm hoping that I can actually order the parts today and collect them tomorrow.
5 years is not bad going for a PC.
*sigh* So that's the (bad) news for the day...
