Well. I unplugged the power connectors and plugged them back in, reset the CMOS and switched it on. BANG!!! Blue light and a loud crack. Then everything worked fine!! I set the BIOS to how I wanted and windows booted fine. Then I turned off the PC. One thing's for sure, I'm never taking this thing downstairs again. I'm buying a 150ft network cable and using it sparingly. But I'm afraid to turn it back on again in case I do damage. What could be wrong? Is it my house's wiring? PSU?

THANKS LA22!!! I feel great now.
