12 days agoHere’s how I would troubleshoot that:
[EDIT] Obvious but very important when you power your PC, if anything starts smelling like smoke, stop immediately. You don’t want a house fire on top of your dead PC.
- Does you PC POST?
- If no, does it spits error messages (or even mobo beeps)? If so you can figure out what’s going on with the mobo manual, but it’s probably a bad news for your PC.
- If it POST, go to the BIOS and look what hardware you can see. Do you see your system disk and / or your PS3 disk?
- If no disk appear at all, maybe you fried the SATA controller. In that case, you can probably boot a disk from USB to salvage your data.
- If the disks appear, try and boot them. If it doesn’t work, either the disk died or you just need to re-install your OS.
Let us know how it is going! Good luck!
PARAGRAPHS, mf! Do you speak it?!
