Solved What a Rollercoaster Ride


So I was right. See post #5
you did mention bad connection. But you didn't narrow it to the actual device which was the Vertical Mount. Whereas Scott specifically pointed to the Vertical mount.

    YA! This the old backup. In case things go south. It'll give me access to everything I need.
OK! The story... Three days ago I was just watching videos nothing intensive. Then my system started being erratic. First the mouse was glitchy I guess you could say and then the system went black and restarted. I booted back to Windows and again glitchy... I couldn't click on any thing. Then I got a blue screen. So fast I couldn't read it and then black. The system was running but nothing on the screen. I shut it off via the PSU and drain the capacitors. Started up again and slowly booted into Windows. Glitchy again and then black screen. But it didn't shut down. Throw out this hole thing I got BSOD indicating CPU and DRAM. This morning I finally thought of the most unlikely! You will never believe what it was! SO! Trouble Shooters. This could be the impossible solve. I leave it to you to find what was my problem. I'll watch the post to see what you think it is. If you can't solve it just say "I Give Up" Have fun! It wasn't for me... What A Pain In The ASS...

Hmmm...I think I remember you mounting it vertically...

Vertical mount came loose?
Excellent deductive guess. Wow, way to go (y)
