Lol...shit happens...make sure your processor fan is in good shape and the smoke won't come out of your chips :glugglug

it actually happened from the idiot cable guy plugging the modem into my usb port while it was still plugged into my network card and somehow it was too much for the port and popped it

of course the problem with my service was outside up the pole

How the fuck did you do that?

Damn crazy, your board was smokin. :glugglug

It's burnt.

Overclocking? Or just shit happens?

wow usb is meant to be hot-swappable is it not?

sure is

lol

That's pretty crazy stuff. Good pics.

man, that sucks, good thing you replaced it already.

i dont allow cable guys to touch my stuff.

I don't think I'm nerdy enough for this thread :winkwink:

I've seen worse, but lucky that has yet to heppen to me, hopefully never will.

We fried a mother board here. I mean that thing was smokin'. Wouldn't have minded so much except it was brand new.
