[BBTS] Bronies Beyond the Stars V4.0

Our recruitment rate just surged by 100%. Welcome to the clan.

 

Wooo! new peoples!

 

Welcome, new person!

 

Thank you!

 

We'd add you to the clan list.
But @Zailiner and @MoshiMoshi
Seem busy these days
We need someone to manage all the Clanstuff.
We'll be completely lost once we hit the 500 page cap.

 

Lol somewhat bad timing niah, Zai just popped upfor a life update and probably wont be reappearing for a while hehe

 

If we ever get there, that is.

 

We'll somehow manage to climb that mountain.

 

It'll happen...

 

I wonder if it is possible to create an NPC that sells coreFragments without anyone else needing it as a mod...

 

I don't think that would be an issue. Since most all data is stored server-side, an NPC edit shouldn't cause any issues. Especially considering it's selling a normally obtainable item.

 

Ooh, new-ish stable update.

...now I can't get starbound to run at all. Guess I'd better get to building that computer.

...if the parts would only work. WTF, parts.

 

What seems to be the problem friend

 

Problem one is an old computer that could barely run last year's stable version. Nothing to be done about that poor thing.

I'd bought parts for a new computer, and when the last pieces arrived I tried building it. Thing didn't start.

At first I thought it was the motherboard, but after some searching of the problem (the computer would be on for about two seconds and then shut down for five, then turn itself back on, then off, etc.) I cleared out the CMOS and began anew. I could get it to POST on the screen with just the motherboard, CPU, and some ram, so things looked okay. Looked like the problem was actually the GPU, as nothing would even start when I plugged that part into the board.

So I took it out, wrote to the manufacturer for help in case there was some fix I hadn't yet found, and started loading an OS onto the (at the moment) functioning GPU-less computer. After I'd loaded it successfully and found a lack of network drivers, I put in the disc that came with the motherboard to load the various drivers from that. After the first one loaded (no idea which one had been first) the computer reset, and then went back into an "on for a second, off for a few" on/off routine again. Clearing CMOS did nothing this time.

Now I'm wondering if it really was the motherboard this whole time, and not the GPU at all. Or maybe there's something wrong with both. Or maybe, just maybe (Murphy is my patron) there's something wrong with nearly every part I received, and I'll have to replace the lot before this thing gets going (which I can't afford to just buy new ones.) And thanks to delayed shipping problems, I wasn't able to make a start on this thing until most of it was past the 30-day simple return/replace period, because it goes by purchase date, not the shipping or received date.

If for some reason you want a parts list, here you go. If you've got some insight on this, I welcome it because I've been trying to get this running for the last two weeks.

 

Looks like a decent PC to me, I dont have a lot of experience with Radeon, but I do have some questions. Some are irrelevant (maybe )

I'm curious, why did you decide to run a MicroATX motherboard with ATX components? Just a little irrelevant curiosity

You say that initially it was only staying on for a short amount of time and then would shut off and turn back on? But you fixed that problem? Except after loading drivers and OS the problem resurfaced?

Heres a few things, are you able to open the BIOS and look through it, Or would the pc shut off during that? If so I would like to know what temperature your components are running at.

Another thing is, your power may be a component in the problems, did you see the compatability notes on the part list? That's stuck out to me as a possible problem.

As a note I'm currently studying Info Tech in school so I'm not a professional but I think I have a good setting, if you want I can bring it up to my teacher/class and see what he/they think.

 

My reasoning for mixing component types was mostly at-the-moment discounts.

And no, I can't even open the BIOS. When it was working, the temperatures were pretty low as I recall.

Power could be a problem, and I did notice the compatibility issue they mention, but it only mentions the RAM which hasn't been a problem so far.
Incidentally, that particular set of RAM wasn't the set I ordered. I didn't notice at first as it's the same brand and style, but I'd ordered the 1600MHz variety and got the 2133MHz. It seems Newegg sent that on rather than sit on my order an extra couple weeks while they restocked. Something similar happened with that GPU (which was a different company) I might add.

I've checked some calculators online and my power supply should be sufficient for all that is listed. (5 out of 7 agree on that; 1 hadn't been updated in some time and didn't have my parts on its list, and the other claimed I needed a 1200 watt PSU. Just a bit ridiculous, I'm not running SLI or crossfire here.)

 

So... Naruto Musical...
http://kotaku.com/naruto-live-action-actors-look-dirty-1679175100
Not sure what to think there's this...

But then there'S awesome stuff liek this :

Some characters look so spot on and other so out of place...
Also Zabuza :

 

Not a musical, is it? I thought it was just a stage play. Regardless though, it's got some pretty awesome-looking costumes.

 

Oh oops. Confused the two.
I wonder if it tells the whole naruto story arc? judging by the fact that Gaara and Haku are both in there...
