Here's what happened, and I'm wondering if I fried my CPU...
- Over temp. warning popped up.
- Noticed it when I came back into the room, and it may have been up for as long as 15 minutes.
-Computer died before I got it shut down, and it wouldn't reboot.
-Fans, and drives are getting power, but nothing happens with the drive activity light, the lights don't activate on my keyboard, and the monitor isn't getting a signal.
- Tried swapping in another hard drive... no joy. Tried a USB recovery disk... STILL no joy.
My guess... blown CPU, but I'm loath to drop the money for a new CPU without being sure. Does my guess seem right?
Cheers, and thanks in advance for any advice!
