    I never said that and I never would, you're a moron you know nothing. you take fanboyisms and stretch them out into several paragraphs that's about as far as your troubleshooting prowess goes

    you've probably blocked it out then
    if i remember i was pointing out that:
    - no video to monitor
    - fans on case still work
    - optical mouse on, but unresponsive to movement
    - keyboard capslock/numlock/scroll-lock unresponsive, none of the lights on keyboard turn on
    Solution: get a better power supply

    I wouldn't have praised you for that, there's a hundred different things that can cause those symptoms and most of them are more likely than a bad/underpowered power supply
