That was scary...
So I decided to do a complete rebuild on my primary pc. Took her apart, cleaned everything out, redid the wires. Usually when I am working with my pc I am very careful, I was being very careless this time.
I put it back together... restart... failure... processor error. I almost had a heart attack... did the usual checks and all was ok but it still wouldn't start. I started freaking out because I wasn't getting any POST error codes. Tore it apart again, put the processor back in.
Its finally up and running again... I am not being this stupid again.

When I clean out my computer I just take it to the gas station and use their air compressor to blow all that shit out. But be warned, after a long enough time those summabitches spit out liquids
