My idiot moment of the year...

Entil'ZhaEntil'Zha I see famous people
in Zocalo v2.0
One of the computers in the cafe kept locking up, it would boot, run for a minute, you'd move the mouse around and blammmo, locked up..

so i re-seated the CPU with new heat grease, changed out the fan/heatsink, still locked up. replaced the video card, still locks up, changed out the network card, no go, still locked up when i'd move the mouse. new harddrive, nope, still locks up with mouse movement,

"Fuck it" thinks I and i go grab a backup computer, plug everything in, loads up, looks fine, i launch firefox, move the mouse and... Locked up. 4 different machines i try, same effing thing... 2 hours i work on it. no luck..

Does anyone see the flaw in my testing? and have a guess at what it turned out to be?


[spoiler] Yup, you guessed it.... BAD FUCKING MOUSE! ugh [/spoiler]

    Yeah, a classic. You can also add keyboards (with coffee stains) on that list.

    Logic isn't all it's cracked up to be. It will only lead you down the wrong path with confidence. :D
