This was great!  My friend Anthony was over, and we had some work to do in the basement, so I figured I'd chooch on the music.  The computer, on the other hand, had a different idea.  It had been giving me problems for quite some time.  Wouldn't want to turn on.  After unplugging and plugging it back in a few thousand times, disconnecting and reconnecting the keyboard, and a few small animal sacrifices, it would work.  Usually failed to boot up a few times, throwing an oddball BSOD.  Until the power supply had "warmed up" enough.  I knew it was failing, but left it, as the machine isn't used anywhere near as often as it used to be.

This time, it wasn't having it.  Computer Over.  Virus=Very Yes.

So I started troubleshooting.  This was not acting.  I knew the camera was rolling, but didn't give my normal on-screen persona.  This is really how I diagnose and repair a computer.  Yes, really.  Got to have a little fun in your life, especially when the system really doesn't mean anything and there are 10 more ready to replace it.
