Hi guys
I'm not sure if I posted this in the right forum so if not I'm sorry.
Ok so in 2008 (I didn't realise it was that long ago!!) I bought a desktop pc from OC. I loved it, it played all my games with no problems for years. Then a few months back now just one day I turned it on and it said failed to boot. Now when I try it turns on but nothing comes on the monitor (that stays in stand by mode). I've tested the monitor and it works fine.
This is what I bought
"Ultima OC 9800GT" Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.40GHz @ QX6950+ 3.00GHz+ Quad Core DDR2 System
Antec 900 Nine Hundred Ultimate Gaming Case - Black
Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition SP1 32-Bit - OEM (N09-02215)
OCZ Platinum Revision 2 XTC 2GB (2x1GB) PC2-6400C4 800MHz Dual Channel Kit (OCZ2P800R22GK)
Now I know it's old but it did all I needed it to, so what I am asking is. Is it worth getting it fixed? (I don't even know what's wrong with it) if so is anyone able to help me find a recommended repairer in or around where I live (Essex//Thurrock)
If it's not worth getting fixed then is anything salvageable towards a new rig?
I currently have a MSi gaming laptop I bought from here too so I'm still able to game at the moment but I miss my desktop and 37" wide screen monitor and gaming keyboard etc.
