            Could be one of your fans packed it in and your processor is getting to hot..I would shut it down and take alook to make sure the fans are running before you fry it

                When that happens, 9 times outta 10 it's the power supply.

                But you may want to take a peak at the fans for the cpu, case and power supply.

                If any of them are stopped or spinning slowly, you might wanna shut her down.

                        fuck.... i found it.

                        was my Antec backup box. A big ass cloud of smoke started pouring out of it. Fucking cpu or the mainboard or something just fucking self-destructed.

                                            Once one of my fans in a remote server seized up and eventually took out the power supply... when I got to the physical box the entire metal case was uncomfortably warm and the PS itself was too hot to hold. The whole (op<b></b>en plan) building stank of burning electronics. I'm lucky it didn't start a fire, as I didn't have indemnity insurance at that time.
